It has been a while since I have offered any musings on this blog; and there is a reason for that. I have been quiet lately, pondering "being present". Posting less; taking pictures of "myself." I want to be present- present in my current life, present with my friends, present with my husband, present in my goings and comings. I don't want to miss the living that is happening around me because I was too busy trying to convince people that I live a great life. I want to respect intimacy by keeping the sweet moments for myself. I want to respect quality friendships. I want, more than anything else, to remain in a place of authenticity.
"You know it's funny what's happened to us; our lives have become digital, our friends virtual. Anything you could ever want to know is just a click away. Experiencing the world through endless secondhand information isn't enough. If we want authenticity, we have to initiate it."
-from the movie Art of Flight
