At Last

There are certain feelings that I do not believe can be matched. Understanding a mathematical formula one has struggled with for any amount of time; holding a newborn infant; watching a goat kid and seeing the raw promise the world holds; opening a book - any book, but especially a hardcover - that no one else had yet opened. Those a some of my favorite moments. The one I just experienced is opening, finally, my copy of Suzanne Collins' Catching Fire. At this moment, before reading a single word, this book is full to bursting with potential. All I know is the feeling of being the first person to open this copy of the book is the purest form of exhilaration I have felt in months.

Much love,

-Genni
