Today I am choosing to set out on a journey.  The premise is simple.  For every hour I'm awake, I will attempt to take one photograph every 23 minutes past the hour and post to this blog.

It sounds a bit daunting and crazy, but for me it is important.  8 years ago, as an adolescent, I was sexually abused.   I built around me a carefully constructed world of safety and security.  And in the process I lost the confidence to live my life on my terms.  I have done a lot in the 6 years since my abuse came to light, but it is only now that I am actively choosing to live my life.

And as I choose to live this life I have been given, I have noticed that time is flying by almost faster than I can live it.  I want to slow down time, learn to savor it.  This blog is born out of a desire to find beauty in the simplicity of life, to enjoy life even in the midst of the mundane, to learn to recogonize the blessings in the moment and in the process learn how to live again.

I hope you join me along the way.
