Roped in
Staring into space, knowing I’m in a place I’d rather not be. Yet circumstances don’t allow me to leave, or so I keep telling myself. I know I need to go, I know I need […]
Shining Light creates Shadows
The more light the sun shines on the world, the more shadows will form and as the sun moves through the sky so too do the shadows. When the sun is at its highest point, […]

It’s really rewarding to see the fruits of your efforts. I don’t want to say of my labour, because I don’t really feel like it’s been laboursome when I’m doing what I love. In this […]
