'cellf' absorbed
don’t look unless you want to be taken back a little. the crazy thing is your probably within one foot of it and it is absorbing you. slowly.
so many things in life that i want to learn. if i could implant some microchip in my brain and instantly learn kung fu, spanish, how to cook breakfast, and a full knowledge of architecture i would. but learning takes time, and anyone will tell you that to really master something you must practice for 10,000 hours. i don’t have that much time, i just need more time. we can find time, perhaps its that we don't really want to look in depth where our time is actually going.
curiosity is the beginning of learning, you have to be somewhat interested in a topic for you to fully explore it. sir issac newton holed up on in his room on a summer break from college in his early twenties with a prism and changed our entire thinking on light and color. imagine if he had access to internet radio and the app store, would we even know his name?

all alike
i daydream of planting people on an island with like-minded souls, it sounds odd but randomly enough i think about it a lot especially when i am watching the news. you know those people, their extremists in their belief to where whatever it is they are ‘standing up for’ has become more of a lifestyle for them rather than a simple opinion or a complex philosophy. and it is not one thing in particular, its republicans and democrats, its pro mother nature and anti establishment, it’s the super religious and the acute atheist’s. just out there. just so obsessed that no one else is allowed an opinion or another view opposing his or hers.
so my daydream consists of putting all people of one particular extremist view on an island together for just a year or so and let them see what happens. think about it, what if you put all the anarchists together, no social rules, no laws, no religion, and just let them live. they would instantaneously believe that they had found true freedom and libera…

These pictures are beautiful. And so is your story.

I know I know I totally spoiled your little title and you will most likely not reply to my last message. But....I really like this picture because it makes me think 'hmmmm what are they doing, I can't see what they are doing at the table....why won't he explain the freaken pic'. So to spite me you can just continue not responding to posts Tee-hee. Orrrr maybe you can??? Just jocking...or am I???
i visited the beautiful country of Haiti a few years back and i can totally relate to your experience. i would move there if i could. the people there are among the most amazing ive ever met.
thank you for sharing your experience.
Joy. Sadness. Love. Dispair. Hope. Especially hope.
I have never seen such hope as in the eyes of the Hatian people. Attending mass in Creole was one of the things that hit me most. They have endured so much yet know that better times will come. Thank you for sharing your pictures and your experience. God Bless.
