The Roar of the Falls: My Journey with Kaya

I land sprawled on my carpeted bedroom floor. I am dressed in my pajamas, and I can hear my parents downstairs. I’m home again, and I’m safe. I made it back from Kaya’s world, but I wish I could rewind time and go back to that moment when we saw the bear. I’d listen to Kaya this time. I should’ve trusted her.

I think of Kaya’s words: Mistakes teach us to do better next time. I think about my gardening group. I’ve made some mistakes with them, but I’ll have another chance tomorrow to help them, just like Kaya helped me.
