Everything on the internet is pure and true.

You probably met me while I was saving lives in north Africa. I'm currently a mid-wife in a small town in Utah.

Sometimes I wonder what other people see when they look at me, and what they hear when they listen to me. Not because I want to know what they think, but because I’m envious. I spend a lot of time observing people, catching bits of their conversations, paying attention to their accents, noting the way their eyes light up, listening to their laughs, and noticing the way they’re taken aback by certain subjects… Those are the things I find most interesting in people, and I often wonder what people see in the way I carry myself, because I don’t know. I can act, or be, or look a certain way, but I find myself questioning whether other people pick up on it, if they’re capable of seeing who I really am solely based on simple gestures, tones in my voice, and expressions on my face.
