Alive and well

Today's my birthday.  And, i'm sooooo one of those people who celebrate.  

Here i am doing what feeds my soul the most: dancing + photography (there was camera wrapped around my wrist.)  

Don’t ask what the world needs.

Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.

Because what the world needs is is people who have come alive.

-Howard Thurman

a way of travel

While walking along the road of life it's helpful to  

"remember that happiness is a way of travel, 

not a destination."

Walking on a dream

14 years ago, i met this man (CP) and we've been together ever since.  Along the way we've picked up a few things: a mortgage, kids, a sensible car, weight...

All things considered it still feels like yesterday and my life very much resembles the things dreams are made of.  

it went beyond sharing good times and sadness.

it went beyond sharing love and passions.

what they shared was Life in its truest sense

-the opening and the flow

and the becoming more of who they are.

These words are on our bedroom door- a gift i gave CP in 2004.  They rang true then and ring true now.  

And, for that i am deeply humbled and forever grateful.

Happy Anniversary, CP.  

Until next time,

I Heart Photography theme - Black

The theme for this week's photography contest is black (but you can't submit a b&w image).  


Decided to throw my hat into the ring (all puns intended) with this image - 

what do you think?

Dreams have no expiration date....

 Remember your dreams and fight for them. You must know what you want from life. There is just one thing that makes your dream become impossible: fear of failure. Never forget your personal legend. Never forget your dreams. Your silent heart will guide you. Be silent now. It is the possibility of a dream that makes life interesting. You can choose between being a victim of destiny or an adventurer who is fighting for something important. 

- Paulo Coelho

Begin with yes.  Start now.

The world is its own magic

I discovered this little gem of a place while walking with my boys (all 3 of them) on the VA side of Great Falls National Park.  


The light was perfect, super soft, gentle.  The mood matched. And, as i  turned to leave I felt like i was leaving with a little piece of magic... 

"The world is its own magic"

-Japanese proverb

It's all about the memories

We start off  trying to teach our children what life is all about,

  when somewhere along the way 

our children in fact begin to teach us 

what life is all about.

And, for this family 

 it's all about  the memories.

Without you our life wouldn't be the same...

 Happy Bday, Noam!

Until next time,

B.
