I had to ride my bike in the dark today and it got me hooked, like, completely. I’ve since been jogging in the dark, explored our garden in the dark and climbed the fence to our neighbours’ garden.
They have died of old age recently and ever since I can remember, they’d had this group of trees, weirdly shaped, crooked and home of a cat family when I was eight. So I went to those trees for the first time in my entire life and took a leaf as a reminder of my ability to go beyond my own limits.
And all of this might sound like nothing, might sound so trivial, but it almost means the world to me. A turning point in my life, everything’s changed in my head.
