“A year from now you’ll wish you had started today.”  - Karen Lamb

Sitting having sushi with my dearest friend  I contemplated where I was going to go for a week.  She said Costa Rica…I said…why not.  Three weeks later I was on an adventure meeting wonderful people that taught me, laughed with me and without question changed my perception of life for the better.  I wish I could say that I took as many photos as I could…I did not.  There were many times where I sat back and took life in…many times that I was so exhausted that I fell asleep with my bed light on at 9 pm, times where I relaxed in a hammock listening to the rain come down, times where I ran into a friends room screaming because a bat had entered my room while I was in the bathroom, times I reflected on not what I wanted in life but what I was already blessed with, times I listened only and said nothing, times where being alone was for once not lonely.  Yes….as a photographer I can say I wish I could have caught those moments on camera….the woman that lived those moments says….why?….  for those moments can not be captured in a photo…they are to be a part of me forever.

Enjoy….more to come….
