When I came back from a week at the coast, I expected the usual quiet. Salt still in my clothes, sand in my truck, and a dog waiting somewhere behind the door like she always did. What I didn’t expect was to see straight through my backyard. No shadow line. No privacy. No boundary. Just…

My grandmother used to tell me something I didn’t understand for most of my life. “Some truths,” she would say gently, “only make sense when you’re old enough to carry them.” At eighteen, I thought she meant it poetically.
