the colors of peace

created for tag tuesday challege

it is a common thing lately to see and read about how many of us are starting to slow down
when it comes to blogging.  and i am one of them. not that blogging has lost its momentum or that i have lost interest; on the contrary, i love to share and contribute to the world out there in any form or shape i can.  but i need more peace and less frazzle, more time to actually DO than talk about it.  so i have decided to do what a lot of us are doing, a monthly or maybe bi-monthly post about the goings on in my world so i can create more, share with my family and plan that spring roadtrip we've so anxiously been awaiting. especially now that spring is no longer insinuating itself but has arrived.

 and the seedlings are starting to sprout

and i can take those much awaited two hour walks.

like yesterday's

where it felt like i had the beach all to myself

after several days of torrential rains

digital collage i made for the subject of exploring

i can be an explorer again

and get involved in the issues that interest me

like the issues in the patagonia

"it takes a village" or "aysen se levanta"
houses made with empty cigarette boxes
to support the 11th. region of chile which is going through a lot of political turmoil right now.

patagonia protest

well, what i'm trying to say i guess, is that posting takes a long time, and a lot of energy goes into editing the photographs and chosing the right words. and i'm kind of not liking spending so much time in front of the computer.  the whole universe interests me, yes, but, my universe and my love story are too important to me. i will limit my browsing hours to flickr, where i began, and to no more than 30 minutes on pinterest.

let's see if i keep my resolve
