I liked my peace and quiet. My cat, my cabin, and my books were more than enough for me.
 What I didn’t like?
 People on my property without permission snapping photos. Even if she was a younger woman stacked with curves and the brightest smile I’d ever seen.
 She said it’s only pictures, but I didn’t trust a soul. Especially not a pretty one.
 That is until she showed me there was so much more to see than just the four walls I lived in.
 Beauty was all around us. In nature, in ourselves, and in the love we found.
 There was no way I could ever let her go.
