One.

So for most of my life i have been under someone's shadow. I do not think it has been a bad thing, just a thing. Something to overcome and to deal with. Obstacles come in so many different ways- a look, a word, lack of money, too much money, war, losing a job, no ice in an ice machine... it's just something you deal with. You MUST deal with it. I have come to learn that quitting is not an option.

I think the longer i live, the more free i become.

Some things to look forward to:
-My new camera. My FIRST digital slr camera. After shooting for 4 years with my beloved canon rebel... the time has come for me to stretch my wings and get a digital! I expect to do great things with it: great by my standards, that is.
-Toms shoes. I have never purchased a pair, but i strongly believe in their cause. So, I added my contribution to them.

-My niece and nephew coming into town. Ages 2 and 1 with 1 on the way. So much love.
-Teaching at Art's Camp. I will teaching photography to students and hopefully inspiring them to never be afraid of life and to plunge headlong into their Jealous Creator.
-Being inspired again. I have felt dry for awhile now, but i believe that there is rain coming.

I will leave you with the quote already on the blog...

"God is not proud...He will have us even though we have shown that we prefer everything else to Him".-- CS Lewis

This is not to condemn anyone, but merely demonstrate how much we are loved. Jesus takes us even if we halfheartedly go with Him. He continuously sweeps us off our feet- we just need to realize it.
