The enemy of reflection is the breakneck pace - the thousand pictures.
Ernest Hemingway was the author I drew inspiration from.
We're all pilgrims on the same journey but some pilgrims have better road maps.

I like the process of pencil and paper as opposed to a machine. I think the writing is better when it's done in handwriting.
Somehow our devils are never quite what we expect when we meet them face to face.

Do you know what I've learned? That although ecstasy is the ability to stand outside yourself, dance is a way of rising up into space, of discovering new dimensions while still remaining in touch with your body.
