up in santa cruz relaxing. i talked to my mom today on the pay phone from the cliffs next to the ocean and decided that if all i do this weekend is sleep, walk by the water, and drink ice coffee on the couch in my sweatshirt, it will be a great weekend.

something about being by the ocean brings thoughts of africa back, remembering being in cape town two months ago on the other side of this beautiful world, at the feet of the other two oceans. God is bigger than i think he is, and i rejoice in that truth i can stand on.
