I don't remember the exact day of this picture - sometime in October. I was hanging out at C-Rat's house for Margarita Sunday. It was a gorgeous day, and I was looking up at the clouds, mesmerized by the white puffs that magically disappeared. 

It might have been the tequila, but I was incredibly relaxed. I might have even fallen asleep. I might have even uttered this ridiculous quote: "It's just so funny; clouds are just little white puffs." (noooo, I was not high!)

I chose this picture because in that moment, I remembered what it was like to take a little time for myself and just be at peace in the outdoors. I grew up in the country, and I always liked sitting outside looking up at the clouds in the daytime and the stars in the evening. I don't do that much nowadays. And I should. It's incredibly relaxing.
