"The two weeks we spent together have become my favorite movie in my head. I play it over and over, hoping the memories never fade. All my travels, my philosophizing, all my grand ideas—what I know now is that I wasn't following the journal. I was running from the truth. The journal wasn't some self-help book, or guide to find fulfillment. It was a map that led me to you. I still keep it with me, but I read it differently now. Finding you made every bit of that journey worthwhile. It has given me strength to face whatever comes next. Love is what makes us dance in the face of death."

just watched COPA 71, a documentary about the "lost" women's world cup- teams from england, italy, argentina, denmark, mexico, and france competed in front of 110k people in azteca stadium, 20 years before the first fifa-approved women's tournament. it's still the highest-attendance women's sporting event ever, and it got buried and forgotten because fifa threw a tantrum about girls playing soccer. absolutely wild.
