“No man should go through life without once experiencing healthy, even bored solitude in the wilderness, finding himself depending solely on himself and thereby learning his true and hidden strength.”
S O L I T U D E, my friends. Fall in love with it.
I love my job. I love taking pictures. I love everything. I am so blessed. Two of my photos are being featured by Canon at the Henry’s show this weekend. Etsy that!
This is the AQUEDUCT BRIDGE in SEGOVIA, Spain. And also me posing by a grunge door in Segovia.
Diving into my pillow is all I can think about right now. Nap time.
I’ve been indulging quite heavily in Beatles tunes for the past few days for no apparent reason but it’s fixing something inside me. I so wish I lived in the 60s. John Lennon is handsome. Anyway, here’s Day Tripper. It’s on replay.

I’m going to start planning my trip to ICELAND after I tackle Vegas next month. Iceland is where you feel the heavens and forget that you’re still on Earth. It’ll be magical! :)
Look at this picture perfect restaurant. Almost too pretty to actually eat in. I can’t wait to be in Vegas in November. And then I can’t wait to book my next trip. I need to travel again.
I give thanks to the truly wonderful, irreplaceable people in my life. Thank you.
So I’ll just leave you with a classic sailing song by Styx.
“I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.”
“Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me… Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful… that’s what matters to me.”
“I was worth over $1,000,000 when I was 23, and over $10,000,000 when I was 24, and over $100,000,000 when I was 25, and it wasn’t that important because I never did it for the money.”
“When I hire somebody really senior, competence is the ante. They have to be really smart. But the real issue for me is, are they going to fall in love with Apple? Because if they fall in love with Apple, everything else will take care of itself. They’ll want to do what’s best for Apple, not what’s best for them, what’s best for Steve, or anybody else.”
“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
“Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
This one looks like she has little jewels on the edge of her wings. :) Available as an 8×10 at my Etsy Shop!
