Surrender, But Don't Give Yourself Away

Memory Spaghetti

Every year I try to make a personal Christmas card but this year, I kept my idea process going well into January and never produced a thing.  But at the last minute, I cranked out this cheater quick Instagram sentiment using a retro Polaroid photo from a session we did back in the early 90's in San Francisco at our apartment in the Tenderloin District.

These old cut up Polaroids are a great reminder of life before computers and phones. And that it's so important to keep creating and enjoying yourself through all points of life because those are the only times you'll actually remember when looking back.  In the end, it's all concentrated down into those fragmented moments, what you created and the rest just disappears.

Not to say the quality, quiet non-eventful times aren't important and essential to live because I do believe that is the black matter, that holds reality all together.  I guess you need a great mix of the two.  I require more down time then the average bear but like to have a few projects going.  As the girl I tend to do most of the actual house tending which is only an issue when I don't have enough time for myself.
