Serendipity Entry #1: Summertime Magic
It was August when we first met. Heat waves were visibly rising from the pavement. Humidity was enhancing the thickness of the air as if you could grab it with your own hands. I’ve always felt a fondness for summer. Summer air has electricity in it. The days are long. […]
