I'm making this site for a few of my select friends... People whom I trust and
who I value greatly. My primary site has
risen in popularity greatly and I have to say that I LOVE that it has!
But, I've discovered that there I write for my readers. Here I'll be writing
more for myself. You as a trusted friend will see a bit more of what makes
me, ME.
Be it lists of projects to be done, pictures I've recently snapped, funny stories
or even affairs of my heart.. Things I'm struggling with, learning, dreaming,
enjoying or otherwise.
If you're here, you're most welcome.. Even uninvited. So, pull up a chair and get to know who I really am a bit better!

| Crazy happenings today that you may hear about on the news tomorrow.
Event 1:
Early this evening a commuter plane took off from the Chattanooga airport,
and crash landed in a parking lot. I don't know what happened, or how
many people are hurt but the street is still closed, and swarming with police.
This was only a couple miles up the road from our house... Wow.
Event 2:
Just made a quick run up that same road to grab some dinner, while
we were in the drive through, a firetruck hit his siren (it looked like he'd
just got off duty from the airplane accident) and headed back in the
direction we'd come.
As soon as we'd finished grabbing our food, we hopped back on the
road for the mile and a half drive back to the house. Halfway there,
we were stopped by a police officer, and covered in thick smoke.
It appears that a warehouse is burning down.. Not even a mile from
the airplane accident. Wow(x2).
Anyway, I'm in serious Prayer for everyone in the accident and fire,
as well as all those working to save them.
Please pray!

For a long time now, I've been the kid with big ideas...
A bit of a dreamer, but with a complex that requires me
to DO things.
To take ACTION on the things that are important to me.
Today, I'm at a crossroad.
And at that crossroad, I've had one of those 'big realizations'.
Those I love are trying to figure out who they are....
Who they're supposed to be, and how they are supposed
to be that person.
If you know me well, you know I'm a chronic 'helper'
and counseler, so I've painstakingly tried to figure out
how to take my little bit of knowledge and wisdom and
share it in a way that betters them.
After a surprisingly large amount of Prayer, thoughts, and
conversations I finally stumbled upon something that has
the makings of being a 'big idea'.
It's simple really, but the more it's thought through, the
more obvious it becomes that it IS the truth behind our
lives, personalities, behaviors and lifestyles.
"We ARE the decisions that we make".
That's it.
Think about it; the choice to breathe, to live, to help, to
hope, to think, to be depressed or overjoyed, all things
are simply Choice.
It IS true that sometimes we are controlled outside of
our choices, but I contest that we should only make
ourselves stronger if that is the case. For it is certain
that through our resolutions, and controlling ourselves
to hold to those resolutions, we can acomplish, and/ or
become WHATEVER it is that we decide we should.
Make proper choices, sure...But the key to all of this is:
Self Control.
Without taking full control of your life from your 'lazy self'/ satan/
other people/ fears/ expectations/ etc. You are allowing your life
to be controled by everything but the things you know you should be.
On a Christian level (for I feel I cannot address such topics without
bringing it up), God has promised to open any door we ask him to.
So, why is it that we aren't asking?
If all you do is take control of your life, make choices, and live by them,
then your life will become SO much better.... The crazy thing?
You already know it.
Live It.

Incredibly...
Busy that is.
My life is in a bit of an uproar.
Things changing, things gaining, things breaking, things making,
things taking, things moving, things smoothing...
Alright, I'll be quiet now. 
Really though, life is such a wild ride sometimes.
I'm planning a real update on my main site as soon as I get
my Apple back (again)... Without it, I'm practically naked,
and using an ancient Dell (which crashed the first time I booted
windows up... Reminded me of why I'm an Apple user!)
After an onslaught of rapid life changes, I now:
- Have a wonderful young lady in my life.
- Have become homeless for the moment.
- Have summarily moved.
- Have some intense business stuff growing.
- Have displayed my photos at a month long showing in a nearby Atlanta gallery.
- Have some incredible Winter and Spring plans that rival my past years insanity.
- Have put my bikes up for sale.
- Have created a beautiful wish list of photographic goodies.
- Have driven to Florida and back twice in the past two weeks, each time staying there for 24 hours.
- Have been studying God, and trying to better understand who He is.... And who He is to me.
- Have planned a 30 day trip to our Island house for a month long work/ study break in January.
So, there's the basic update... In story/ photo form on my main site, ASAP.
I've missed you guys, I hope that all is well... Let me know if I can be praying for you.
P.S. Go see Casino Royale, it's AMAZING!!
