Normal

Day to day life is just so full and rich and busy, isn't it? We pack our days with a zillion small moments, sleep, then rise for the next. Our minds chase ideas, questions, and plans in endlessly spiralling circles. Work, rest, repeat. Once in awhile we slow down enough to enjoy the simple things. "Just Normal" life.

This spring was all about the simple things. We just - lived life. Not that different from life anywhere else. And yet - here we are, getting to live it in Honkers.
