From 6th Ave

Just because someone else does something doesn’t make it right. - Father to his son while waiting for the light to change at 6th Ave and Spring Street

Winter

“That’s what winter is for…rest and reflection.” Someone in my office said that. I don’t remember who. It’s been an unusually warm winter, but I’m still glad that it’s almost over.

Artistic Vision and Compromise

I was writing page after page of thoughts as I tried to answer cate songbird’s question, and I realized that maybe there’s a much easier answer. Do I feel that my artistic vision is compromised by covering weddings (since practically speaking, that is a viable business)? Sometimes yes. Sometimes no.

Capturing A Moment, Such BS

Before continuing with answering cate songbird’s comment to Motivational Post 2, I’m going to slightly tangent and post something I wrote a while back. I didn’t post it before because it didn’t flow with the posts I was writing at the time, but now it seems to fit. I don’t believe in “capturing moments.” The [...]

From My Journal

Raw thoughts from my journal. Originally written on December 22, 2007. What’s it all worth? Will anyone read the books stacked at the edge of the table? There’s a layer of dust in the room that seems to never go away. You could dust one spot to only make room for more.

Clarity Is Overrated

“Character is more important than being sharp,” said the interesting idiot (that would be me). A lot of people have complimented me on the photo above.  I’ve even printed it for someone to hang in her living room.  I’m not sure what it is about the photo.  Maybe it’s the perspective…maybe the colors…maybe a mixture [...]

Are You Righteous?

From “The Thin Red Line.” Internal monologue from the face of a dead Japanese soldier looking up from the dirt. Addressed to Private Witt, who stares silently at the face. Are you righteous? Kind? Does your confidence lie in this? Are you loved by all? Know that l was, too. Do you imagine your sufferings [...]
