just like when we kick off again in the game after halftime, reviving our energy and strategies, deserts too have their own rhythm under the sun and stars. they might seem to cold-shoulder life with their harsh conditions, but life thrives in the most unexpected ways. it's all about interpretation, finding the beauty in the unspoken, the unuttered stories whispered by the winds over the sands. there's a preestablished respect and awe that comes from witnessing their vastness and understanding the resilience required to exist there, much like preparing for the big game.
