Dear Al:

“I love experiencing new things… I have ‘Freedom’ tatted on my arm… there is some kind of beauty in that past version of me… single.. walking the city streets with headphones on my ears trying to see where life could take me.. Was I really alive when I had nothing or am I truly lost now having more?”-

– I wonder about a version of you before the one you mentioned: earlier in life, as a child, when all you needed was to be safe, before you longed for freedom?
