"It is a good thing to learn the truth one's self. To first believe with all your heart, and then not to believe, is good, too. It fattens the emotions and makes them to stretch." -A Tree Grows In Brooklyn.
Questioning all of life, from my evangelical protestant upbringing to the hairs under my armpits.
I'd like to write today's blog in conjunction with Kevin Garrett's song "Refuse."
As a whole, I prefer letting photos do most of the talking these days. I'm realizing more and more how I am being shaped as a human. We were made to change. While words can serve as markers for growth, photos can too, in their own special way. I'm a highly visual person, and while I thoroughly enjoy (and am constantly) writing, I'm also constantly envisioning my words and my ideas.
I'm pairing my photos today with the song "Refuse" because it is a beautiful song that speaks to part of where I am now, in my soul. Listen to it! (Link below)
"I'm okay alone. It makes my soul stir."
"Under microscopes, keep my head in the dirt."
"Slow crash, stumble over nothing on my own path"
"Runaway, I'm just a nomad"
"No one ever wanted me to go back"
"I know I am anything but uncouth"
"People try and change me since my youth..."
"But I refuse."
"Far away from home, forgot my address"
"Mind is still on loan...keeps me prepossessed."
"Slow crash, stumble over nothing on my own path. Runaway, I'm just a nomad. No one ever wanted me to go back. I know I am anything but uncouth. People try and change me since my youth. But I refuse."
Press play and thanks for checking out yet another of my "naturalist" soul refreshing adventures.
