Danger and Disaster..

Ode to Kenzie:
Kenzie Disaster Hovis. This girl is more than just my best friend.. It sounds cliche I know it, but there's no way to describe her. Kenzie, you are always there when I need you. Noone NOT ONE person knows me better than you do and for some reason, you still love me regardless. We can talk about anything, laugh about anything, and sometimes even cry about anything. There's not a problem in this world that I couldn't come running to you with. I know that no matter what it was, you'd still love and accept me just like you always have.
We've always had the best of times. No matter what the situation. It never ceases to amaze me how close we got so quickly. Mostly while I was gone. You were the only person to continuously and successfully keep in contact with me when I moved and I realised how much you cared.  Thank you for never giving up. Thank you for always loving me. Thank you for accepting me and everyone around you. Thank you for being straight forward with me especially when I needed it. Thank you for encouraging me and most of all thank you for being the blessing that you are. I don't know what I would ever ever do without you. I love you Disaster. Love, your Danger.

After all... a picture's worth a thousand words.

As some of you may know, I really enjoy photography. I've recently started considering Photojournalism and I've been taking my camera out to Mbonsweni on Wednesdays when I go to help at the feeding program. I've fallen in love with the kids there and just thought I might share some of the pictures I've had the pleasure of capturing...

The Simplicity of Nature



I recently went to the Botanical Gardens with Miki and we saw some really beautiful things. It never ceases to amaze me how absolutely stunning nature can be. What amazes me more is that it's just simply beautiful. Everything on this Earth was perfectly designed, and no other creation except humans stress about how to go about being "beautiful". Nature just.....is. It's that simple. The plants don't worry about how colorful they are, they just are. It's simple. It's meaningful. It's artistic. Anyways, here are some of the shots I liked.

Starting over...

So this is my first new blog! After a failed attempt at keeping up with an old blog, I've decided to start fresh. So this will be my new blog. My photography, my songs, my creative anything will be here.. Along with any thoughts I may have or interesting people to meet. Stay tuned and remind me every now and then to keep things updated... Thanks ;)
