And the Beat Goes On

after my friend ashlyn died four years ago, the world got a little dimmer. still, every once in a while i see a spectacular sunrise, the kind that lights up the entire sky in an orange glow and i think of her.

today was one of those days.

ashlyn was the kind of girl who traveled through life with an internal soundtrack running through her head at all times. whether she was cruising the strand on her bike, perusing thrift stores for hidden gems like unique juice glasses or dancing her pants off at chili cook-offs, ash had a great time no matter where she was or what she was doing.

and it was infectuous.

i miss her presence in my life but i look forward to seeing her winking at me through the next awesome sunrise that catches my attention.
