today I...

found that I am addicted to the 'next blog' feature on Blogspot.

found a blog that made me weep with its beauty in both photos and writing.

found a new love for education and place even deeper than I could ever imagine.

found myself in love with a beautiful boy who makes me deliriously happy.

"Things aren't all so tangible and sayable as people would usually have us believe; most experiences are unsayable, they happen in a space that no one has entered, and more unsayable than all other things are works of art, those mysterious existences, whose life endures beyond our own small, transitory life.

-Ranier Maria Rilka
Letters to a Young Poet


today I have a new sense of life. I am fast becoming the person I've put together in my mind as the desired outcome of my schooling and experiences. I will not limit myself, I will dive in with all the energy I can muster, and I won't settle for anything less than the best for that moment. I am taking the responsibility to own my education, to live it, breathe it; when it comes time to venture past the cradle of academia I will be ready to succeed.

The blog that made me tear up a bit, alas was not yours, Dan. : ( it was a travelogue of a guy's time spent in India...his pictures and wording were breathtaking.
but your blog is tear inducing too...tears of laughter are a good thing. : )
