Oblivion
At times, the most lovely things are forgotten or unknown. I take the time to capture photos of beauty you may not notice. I write down what's inspiring to me. I enjoy the little things that this life has to offer.

Yesterday while walking along the river I told myself, and the dog, that we would walk across the bridge the next day. I've spent my whole life so close to Boston yet I have barely explored it. This often makes me laugh because I have been to Rome yet I haven't gone to many places in a city so close to me.


This morning I woke up, got ready, and took the dog to set out on our adventure. We crossed the bridge. When we got to the other side I realized how much nicer it was then on the Cambridge side (which is hard for me to admit). As we kept walking we eventually went down a path that took us to a foot bridge that lead us to a little island. It was beautiful! I was disappointed that I had never been there before. There was lots of lush green grass, perfect for lying in. There were lots of benches under leafy willow trees that looked like the perfect place to sit and contemplate my day. There was an awesome tree that had leaned to the side creating places to climb on it and sit. There were small inlets of water where there were duck families swimming around. It was like a small piece of paradise in the city. I can imagine this place would even be really nice in the dead of winter when it was covered in snow. I can't wait to bring my boyfriend here. I can see us going for a stroll here after dinner to watch the sunset and to enjoy each other's company. Something I love about him is how much he appreciates a quiet stroll in natures beauty, just like I do.

So for the first time in all my twenty four years of living in here I finally got to take a picture of the Cambridge and the Boston skyline in the same day. It's about time! Here's to more exploring in the rest of my summer days.
