Way Back

I am not about me, but about those around me. I'm about those I love and who love me. I enjoy solitude and am comfortable with my own self. I admit, though, that my best memories involve other people. In this photograph, I don't think I have any memories. Probably no thoughts at all. I'm happy though. I'm with someone who loves me. At the moment this photo was taken, I only knew that I was fed and dry and that I was held securely and safely. I knew nothing about days to come.

I'd like to share a video with you. It's about my dad. http://www.logcabinstudios.tv/flash%20Video/ATA_Highlight.html

Even now, I don't know what lies ahead. I'm blindly content. I'm okay with that. I'm good at living in the moment. Sometimes it causes me to march in place. I sit down at the computer, determined to maintain the needed discipline to get my editing done. The phone rings and pulls me out of my frame of mind. It's another videographer. We talk for a few minutes. The other videographer is feeling isolated and just wants to hear the sound of a human being's voice. I know that feeling, so I don't fuss. When at last I hang up, I'm ready for a glass of water, so I head down to the kitchen. On the way, I notice that the bed is unmade or the cats need water. One thing leads to another and I find myself sitting back down to work at 2:00. The day is half gone. I enjoy whatever I'm doing at the moment to the point that I think I'm doomed to accomplish little. I'll tell you though - making videos is awesome. You think up an idea in your head, film it, edit it, and watch your vision come to life. If that's even a billionith of what it must have been like when God created the world, Wow! - He must have loved it. He had a vision and he made it happen. Creativity is the great. We probably all think he's done with his creating. I think we're a work in progress though. What do you think?

So. If you've never met me before and you're just passing through - leave a note. If you have met me - leave a note. It's been a long dry spell since anybody's left me a note. My cup of creativity is bone dry. Help me fill it up by dropping me a line.
