Latourell Falls

“So how do I move forward? . . .”

… I need to acknowledge some of these things that have happened and then acknowledge them within myself. The things that I see in my mother, I am affected by those and I carry that, same with my father. And so, working through that is a very difficult process and I do not even know how to do it sometimes, but I know that learning my history is a big first step because when you know your history, you know where you are from.”

~Drew Michael, in Project 562 by Matika Wilbur
