I had such a great weekend. I had a friend take me under her wing, she is so supportive and seems to be invested in my return to mental health. So, I am grateful for a friend like that! I am grateful for the amazing view of the ocean I have right from my bed! All I have to do is put on my glasses in the morning and I am awed. Plus the morning light is always a great combination of pinks, oranges, and the sky changing light as I look out to the ocean. And I can watch the planes continually taking off from LAX, kind of mesmerizing to watch.
I emailed an old high school mate, and she was shocked to hear I had ended up down here with an ocean view, and walking on the beach on the weekends. I guess that is why I pay the big bucks to live here, it is a slice of paradise. albeit paradise with smog and traffic, but I have found ways to work within it. For now, I am grateful for the friends I have here, and the views I am waking up to each day.
