I am from the sheltering mountains. I am from my mother’s arms and my father’s carpentry. I am from the soft silence after laughing with loved ones. I am from every gift anyone has given me. I am from the glare of the morning snow and the dancing of air from the summer heat. I am from the roof that sheltered my family from rain. I am from the leaves that fall when the wind forces itself on trees. I am from the scent of her perfume and the shadow of his brow. I am from the guidance I follow from strangers. -nt
