This weekend, I got the opportunity to truly relax and spend two and a half lovely, unending days in these Oakland Hills with Cat, under a blanket of sun and silence. One of our activities was tending the succulent garden she dearly adores and has grown under her wing for nearly a year now. She creates beauty from the earth. I am awed. It is a gorgeous oasis. “The harmony of the world is made manifest” via Portrayou
