Found some fun blogs today, as you can see :)

I missed having a Christmas/holiday message while I was off spending time with my family and otherwise doing nothing, so happy, well, belated holidays! I have had a lovely and relaxing holiday break thus far, though I am a bit excited to go back to school on Tuesday and be productive again.

Happy new year! Hope you all have a fabulous 2012!

The Journey

The Journey by Mary Oliver

One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice--
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
"Mend my life!"
each voice cried.
But you didn't stop.
You knew what you had to do,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundations,
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do--
determined to save
the only life you could save.

This is such a beautiful poem, I can't stop thinking about it! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do :)

You Were Only Waiting for this Moment to Arise

It was a gorgeous morning today.

PS: Blogger gave me a ton of trouble with these pictures! I ended up having to post screenshots of the photos instead of the real files because they kept loading in this terrible, grainy resolution even though they went through Photoshop perfectly clear. I'm still not entirely pleased, but it's better than it could have been. So if you wondered why they aren't amazingly clear, that's my explanation...

Parentheses

I apologize for the sad lack of photos, inspiration, significant works of writing, or meaningful thought in this post (to my defense, though, it is difficult to achieve such things while functioning--or attempting to--on 5 hours of sleep)(...which was worth it, in case you're wondering, because the English paper I was working on turned out marvelously). Anyway, I just want to say hi and draw your attention to the new header I created today (....thoughts? I rather like it, even if it is a bit summer-y...). The aesthetics of this blogs remain a work in progress, though the makeover is refreshing.

Have an amazing Thanksgiving! (I am so thankful for all readers of this blog for sticking with it and me--I love you all.)

I may have time to blog this long weekend (when I'm not sleeping and devouring GaGa x Terry Richardson). Stay tuned.

Did the Wind Sweep You Off Your Feet?

Over the weekend, I alternated between cameras that kept running out of battery and took almost one hundred pictures, mostly of leaves and my cat....

:) Hope you enjoy them!
