That was so beautifully written, Susan. How perfectly you described your parallel journeys in car, in mindset, and in life.

Coincidentally, I’m sitting here at my breakfast table in Co. Kerry, Ireland with a blank Leuchtturm notebook that’s waiting to be filled with mileage logs. Rather than a simple numeric record of fuel economy, I’m borrowing an idea from another Porsche owner and recording the locations of the fill-ups. Where will we go in Bluey? What memories will this list recall when I look back at them as future me? I can’t wait to find out. But first, to drive serendipitously like you.

I couldn’t actually bear to read all of this in it’s entirety- it was too much for me. And so good and true and I am so lost.

Love you.

Ah, that good companion serendipity - that which folds the paper, tucks away our past selves and creates the origami of a life. This is a very profound, moving piece 🙏
