There are no mere mortals


photo taken by a lovely swedish girl named Josefine. 

'There are no ordinary people.  You have never talked to a mere mortal.  Nations, cultures, arts, civilations-these are mortal, and their life is to as ours the life of a gnat. But it is immortals whom we work with, joke with, marry, snub, and exploit-immortal horrors or everlasting splendours.'
-C.S. Lewis

dont rush.


 
When I think about having another 40 to 60 years more of life. It blows my mind.


Freaking out about the fact that I am 23 and only in my first semester of university(college) was something I guess kinda concerned me. In a conversation with my dad today,  I was just so taken, that although life is short.. its not short enough to even imagine the accomplishments I may have when my life ends.


I love the photo above it was taken a stormy evening in Alaska. (this photo has caused me to accumulate a lot of photos of intersections, weird I know). But love using that whole journey and direction ideal invoked by intersection, what way to go, where does it lead… if you don’t hit intersection, you aren’t traveling anywhere. I am so excited to continue to hit these moments. It’s a success even at the end when we don’t hit anywhere in particular.. lifes to be explored.. we’ll pass through and experience mant towns, build monuments and create new paths for other travelers to follow. Keep going…


“Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.”


Henry David Thoreau


We have the time.

summer wind down


I'm over in Australia but I'm thinking about the states a lot right now and the wind down of summer.  This photo was taken at Lake Placid (though it's not the Lake Placid) after we were done climbing some mountains in the Adirondacks.  The northern hemisphere is heading into fall, one of the prettiest times of the year, and we down here are getting ready for summer.
