Love.

Today, I rode 80 km on my bike, exploring paths I’d never taken before. I started by turning off in Korczyna, then in Jabłonica Polska, before reaching Brzozów via a fairly steep climb that wasn’t as challenging as I’d expected. Along the way, I stopped in Grabownica Starzeńska to visit family and paused at the cemetery where some of my relatives are buried. The return trip included a partially new route, one I won’t use often but enjoyed exploring. I also paused at the cemetery in Krościenko Wyżne to visit my grandparents. Toward the end of the ride, I saw a mother with her children, a moment that felt significant and worth cherishing. This was especially meaningful since, earlier in the ride, I came across a kitten, a fawn, and a stork, all of which had been hit or injured. Seeing a cat with her kittens basking in the sun afterward was particularly heartwarming. Moments like these truly uplift the soul. #theme-little-things
