In scorched valleys, desert tortoises retreat to shade.
Shells blend with stone and time.
They outlast drought through stillness.

I create with empathy, build with intention, and iterate with joy.

Maybe it found you because you were ready.

Your presence slipped in like fog—quiet and sure.

That’s exactly what I was thinking — or at least pretending to.
