on the hunt

Bonjour,

Today, I will be on the hunt, retracing my steps to find my beloved iPod.
Chances are, I won't find it. I mean, slim to none. But this morning at breakfast, my host mom and I discussed material goods, and how if I lived without it before, I can live without it afterwars. We also discussed how even if someone found it, we imagine they wouldn't have turned it in...People tend to be dishonest nowadays, sadly.

Just when I was about to lose hope in humanity, I remembered these photographs my best friend Molly took during a family trip to the Grand Canyon over winter break. She found, amidst all the cold snow, blooming flowers. Perhaps if she found beauty despite the winter, maybe I'll find hope in mankind again. For the time being, I'll just stop thinking about it and continue going about my vie quoitidienne, daily life.

Here's one of her photographs. Dearest Molly has more talent than she'll ever know...

Until next time,
Have a joyous Monday,
MG
