Dear Nat,

Happy birthday my sweet friend. Riding with you on this planet has been nothing short of incredible from the moment I met you. Knowing you feels like knowing unconditional love a little more closely. One of the things I admire about you the most is how you can make anyone feel safe and supported, even if sometimes they’re being destructive. You’re one of the first people I think about when I need advice, and you’ve always proven that just when I think a human being can’t be anymore inherently good, you come walkin’ in with your sweet heart and kind spirit and prove they can.

Thank you for always always always being the one running out to get that thing we forgot, picking me up at the airport, and for walking with me in the cold not because you had to, but because you wanted to keep me company. Thank you for holding all my crap when I see a photo I gotta get, and for just being so 👏 damn 👏 good, at being good.

You’re an inspiration to me every single day. Here’s to 27!

…and that was the last time we ever saw that lamp or mug.

Savor their last memory, they both shattered 10seconds after this photo.

Shatter ceilings, not lamps 💡

“Outside is pure energy and colorless substance. All of the rest happens through the mechanism of our senses. Our eyes see just a small fraction of the light in the world. It is a trick to make a colored world, which does not exist outside of human beings.” — Albert Hofmann

Everything around us is pure energy. A colorless substance. So what does it take to color the world beautiful? It takes your senses. It takes your curiosity. Like wondering what the color yellow tastes like and describing the way the beat of your heart can sync up to your favorite song. The things that make us human—our senses—THAT is what creates beauty. What is beautiful to me could be mundane to you. But that is the magic of being human. We each create our own sense of beautiful, and no one else can tell you that your definition is wrong, for it only lives within you.
