My sentiment exactly

"If a day goes by without my doing something related to photography, it's as though I've neglected something essential to my existence, as though I had forgotten to wake up." -Richard Avedon

Photography school

One year ago today, my life was about to change forever. One year ago today I started photography school. I remember that night of orientation like it was yesterday. I remember how terrified I was for so many reasons, because I was in a new place with new people, I was on my own, I was about to pursue a dream that I could fail. I didn't know what to expect. I didn't know what I was doing. But I did it. And I am so glad I did. Just thinking back to last summer, it reassures me that photography will always be my passion, my dream, even if sometimes I have to set it aside, it will always be first in my heart, what I really want to do. Last summer changed everything. I can't even begin to describe how it made me feel, what it meant to me, the love I have for everything about it. When people ask me what it was like, to this day I am still at a loss for words. How can you sum up what is potentially the best thing you will ever do with your life? What words are there for that? It...

All you need is love?

This is a question people have asked for a long time. Is it true? Is love all we really need? I think it would depend on who you ask. When it comes to young children, love is all you need. You know your parents love you and spend time with you, that is what is most important to a child. You don't understand the importance of money or work or health, all that matters is love. Maybe that is what is so appealing about childhood, why we would all do anything to go back, because we were innocent and love really was what made the world go round. As an adult, I now see things differently. Love isn't all there is, we need so much more. Some would say that makes me cynnical, but I am not. I want to believe that love is all we need and for the most part I agree with that statement, however I see that there is a lot more that goes along with love. As a parent, your role is not only to love, but to protect, comfort, support, provide, but common sense says that those things automatically go...

Long time, no entry

I haven't written for awhile because I was getting sick of writing about the same things all the time. I noticed that all I ever write about is the family I work for (kids supply endless topics) and the environment (President Bush provides endless topics). Then I realized, those things are my life and frankly, I have nothing else to talk about. So I will continue to talk about them. However, I found something else for today. I am sure a lot of you have heard of YouTube . I discovered it when someone emailed me a link to the Evolution of Dance . Then today I was reminded that I saved the web address (as I often do so I have things to look at later when I have nothing to do, which is always) when the Today Show featured the website. So tonight I explored it. And the first video I looked at was one called Where the Hell is Matt? There isn't really a point to this entry expect to recommend YouTube and this particular video. Something so simple brought me much enjoyment, I hope it ...
