Part of Me

When I put on this mask I become this hybrid that is not fully me and not fully Sitka. It’s a combination and a transformation. I truly believe your experiences make a lasting impression on how you choose to live the rest of your life. I may never live in Sitka again but the time I spent there impacted me in ways I will forever try to understand. All of it is a part of Sitka, and Sitka will forever be a Part of Me.
