SALTWATER

Saltwater was an evening I made for some of my closest friends. It began, in part, with a gift: my friends bought me a 125-gallon aquarium, and eventually that gift grew into an entire world.

I asked everyone to dress as though they were attending an ocean-inspired Met Gala. We spent the evening exploring my three home aquariums, learning about the animals inside them, eating a 15-course omakase, and eventually meeting THE CREATURE.

THE CREATURE is plucked from the sea floor and brought somewhere new. Attached to it are starfish, coral, barnacles - incredibly visible.

But something less visible is attached too: saltwater.

Everything attached, even what you cannot see, are memories and lessons from a life still held somewhere within this one.

And somewhere in building all of this, I kept coming back to the same question:

What stays with you when all else goes?

Even things that transform still carry traces of what they once were. A person leaves. A place becomes somewhere you used to live. A chapter ends.

And still, something stays attached. 

A dreadful lesson. A happy memory.

Even transformation carries something forward - pieces of who you were, gathered into who you’re becoming. Maybe every place you’ve loved, every moment that shaped you, every goodbye, every step forward still lives in one continuous you.

Eventually, the version of you reading my words right now becomes history all the same.
