It's hard enough to live.

The shit and the fan.

I don't write anymore. I don't take pictures anymore. I don't read anymore. I don't curate anymore. I'm stuck and I don't know how to get out. I cry. I meditate. I work. I interact. I help. I'm suppo…

Fire, birds and seeds. (Favorites Photos last 2 weeks)
