in honor of my graduation, and really just to bring in extra money, since i’m now a poor college graduate (or will be as of friday morning), i am excited to announce that i opened an etsy shop! right now, i have 8 photographs up, but i figure once i get the new camera (eek!)…
Category Archives: the rest.
only i could feel overwhelmed after completing my college career. now in a state of perpetual freedom, i find myself looking for what i need to do. i have been finished for 5 hours now, but my mind is still running off of the fumes of academic achievement. it’s strange because i don’t really feel…
i’m feeling extremely anxious about my upcoming transition. an entire transitional phase, as it were. i am home here. with almost all things just the way they are. my habitat. my community. my studies.
let us not forget that our lives are made up of mostly the everyday. everyday joys, everyday trials, everyday failures, everyday triumphs. as a friend put it last night, our lives are not “done” once we reach a certain point. and it is not only the major events that matter. for, who we are is…
been feeling particularly gloomy for such a sunny day. from my side of the river, things seem hopeless. not knowing where to go, not knowing what to do. no prospects. it is hard not to feel like a meaningless person. for the first time- there isn’t a next step. and it’s driving me mad. no,…
“i noticed you” is my favorite, although if you were to print the picture of the door from the post below, that one might take the top spot.
my favorite post is the one where you went to the beach in senegal(sp?).
i’m so proud of you for opening an etsy shop, my love.
you’ve got my email, but just in case: [email protected]

Okay, it is nearly impossible to pick a favorite post because the vast majority or so powerfully inspired (you are a mere instrument of a greater power). If forced to pick, I like “Hope Deferred” from 4.19.2009.
My favorite picture is the illegally acquired “stolen shot”. I hope that you are only given probation for this unthinkable crime; mostly because it is your first offense.
Please let me know when I have won so that I can gloat to my friends and neighbors about my incredible luck!
I love you,
Dad
It’s hard to pick my favorite post but I think “another shot at essence”.
And I choose the “melodious sound”
And I have to agree that I am digging on the photo of the door.
Yeah for the Etsy store. You know where to find me.
Tahni,
The photos were all great but I really liked the one titled “a memory of my mother” and the thoughts along with it. I also liked the blog titled “choosing community”.
Please say hello to your dad for me. My email is [email protected]

My favorite photo is “Simplicity of Pleasure”. Though you might consider Garrett’s suggestion and do a couple of albums of Misha wearing different costumes.
My favorite post is “An Early December Walk”. The photos are sweet and the thoughts are refreshing and so indicative of genuine transformation in your heart.
Let your Dad know I’m sorry for winning the contest.
Hello love! My favorite post (I’m kind of cheating) were the two on 3.13 about His plan. It’s just always been so salient for us both 🙂
As for your prints, I love, and always have loved “Fleeting Beauty” (In fact, Mallory loves it too and lost the bid on another print of yours that is similar.)
Anyhoo, I love you oodles and I’m so proud of you!!

I like both “A Melodious Sound” and “Fleeting Beauty.” The former, because it reminds me of my childhood of playing piano and lazy summer days lying on the grass looking up at the sun-washed sky through the flutter of a riotously colorful umbrella. The latter, because it reminds me of the cherry trees we had in our front yard, and seeing them blossom gave me such joy. Oh, and I already have the location in the house picked out for the photograph I will win. 🙂
Your blog posts. There are so many which have inspired me and Joseph picked the exact one that I would have picked. It was an important turning point. I also however really enjoyed “what i have learned of love.” I’d have to say a last one I enjoyed was that epiphany when you found out that you were saying canard instead of cafard in Senegal!
Here is hoping that you don’t have to share your shower with any more ducks.
