Tonight I am choosing comfort in solitude over complicating my life more. haha.. Peace and quiet in my temporary home. Clean, with healthy food and my only transportation is my bike. I do miss tonight’s shenanigans with open mic.. but I brought my own instrument to my new home away from home. Time to get cozy.
Babysat Gina’s kids while she went to lunch. Returned emails via my phone and caught up on text messages.
Was blown away by a friends sweet words tonight. It is these things that keep me going when all I feel is doubt…

“Just wanted to stop by and share a few words. It has been three years since I started my journey with the military. In that time much has changed, and I have enjoyed seeing the growth you’ve undergone during that time. I always said that you would be renowned in the photographic community and it is awesome to see you getting the press that you’ve deserved. I rarely spend much time on facebook, but my eye is always caught by images that make me stop and think. One as a photographer – how did they get that shot? How did they light that shot? Two as an individual who strives towards and appreciates constant growth. I will say that many of the images I stop to take a look at are yours…. Thanks for doing what you do, everyone is born to be great at something, yours is photography and I’m glad you share your gift with the world. Keep on sharing your gift with bigger and bigger audiences! Keep up the awesome work, I’ve enjoyed seeing your journey!”
