stop fighting and start blogging!

Okay, okay!  I'll do it.  I'll start a blog.  Aren't there enough out there already?  Well, not like mine.  Because my story is unique to me.  My world, my vision, my interpretation... all specific to me.  I have something important to share, not always pertinent, but important.  Important to my creative expression, to my chronicling of life and beauty, and to the friends who will be inspired along the way.  Ooohh.  So cliche.  But I really do hope this isn't just for me.

So that said...  here are the main themes that have been rolling around in my head for months while I have ignored the "call to blog." 


TRAVEL AND ADVENTURE... Love it.  Europe, especially, where I spent five and a half years of my childhood.  Definitely going to share some of those experiences.  And new adventures, too... locally and beyond... hopefully, way beyond at times.

PERMORMING AND FINE ARTS... Art, design, photography, dance.  Oh, and musical theatre.  Yes, lib loves NYC.  I share my art love with my husband, a creative in the film, theatre and television industry:  production design, art direction, set building.  You've got to see his stuff!  

CLASSICS AND WORTHY READS...  Reading the Classics for the first time...how did I miss these?  Love to read and love to discuss what virtue is revealed in a story or speech or document that has stood the test of time.  Newer Worthy Reads require attention, too.  And I love quotes.

BEAUTY AND MY CHILDREN...  Since high school all I wanted to do was have a family and photograph my children.  At that time, I loved the vintage-looking, hand-colored calendars and greeting cards full of misty, idyllic impressions.  Well, I've discovered that photographs of my children are not always idyllic, but always authentic.  And that is beautiful.

LITTLE HOUSE AND THE BIG FAMILY...  This one won't leave me alone, so I guess someone needs to share with me in the roller coaster adventure of a big family living in a small house.  I know size is relative, but in our culture, I'd say we fit this description right now. Hhmmm... this could be a little too revealing for me.  Can we go back to talking about art?

Drink it in!
