The library.

Every life gathers companions.

Some arrive between the covers of a book.

Others appear as music, art, photographs, places, recipes, or quiet resources offered at just the right time.

These are the companions that have lingered long enough to shape the way I notice, receive, and inhabit the life unfolding before me.

I share them here because beautiful things have a way of multiplying when they are passed from one pair of hands to another.
