sabon
February 27, 2008
This morning I had a thought while i stood at my kitchen sink, taking a moment before I left for work to scrub my hands with lavender vanilla salt scrub and rub on some carrot hand lotion from my favorite body boutique, Sabon. Where will i find these simple pleasures i have grown to love from this city when one day i move from here? I know that life is not wrapped up in salt scrubs and carrot lotions by any means, but it was a moment that reminded me to tarry; to savor this sweet minute. For a day may come when the simple pleasures i have been invited to indulge in will pass away, and the Lord will bring a new carrot lotion into my life…
moments like this make me faintly taste the tears i will inevitably cry when it’s time to say good-bye to New York City and hello to some place new.

Breathtakingly beautiful. You have a style of grace and elegance, interposed with insight and wisdom that far belies your years.
I shall catch up on your other posts tomorrow I hope.
When and if you do leave New York City, I hope it shall be for my neighborhood.
In fact, it’d be fabulous if you could just follow me around my entire life so I can partake of your presence in the flesh, not just online.
m*wah! I love you!
