You are not the storm. You are the sky that the storm passes through.
Playlist-ing the sting. Lol

It's caught inside of my mind ☔
I won't be left dancing alone to songs from the past.

Halfway through my work day, but I'm already buzzing, because I'm shooting and filming the touring production of La Bohéme tonight. 🙌🏻🌟

Remind yourself today that you don't have to be prefect to be worthy. You don't have to be perfect to deserve to live. You don't have to be perfect to deserve safety, or love, or happiness-- or to deserve more than the bare minimum in life.
You deserve it all. Here, now.
You deserve it all. Here, now.

I had a moment earlier today where some very intrusive thoughts and feelings just appeared without warning. The feeling was similar to being pounced on by a cat. It startled me so much that I actually put my hands up and said “stop” out loud.

Tone curves, and color theory on my mind.

No power earlier. Assumed it was a neighborhood-wide issue. Checked power company page. No scheduled or unscheduled interruption. Checked with neighbor. Apparently just me. Reset circuit breaker. Power back. That's never happened before.

What is it that they say about not being able to make a new old friend? You're just stuck with the ones you already have.
And perhaps it's out of familiarity, and the comfort found in routine, but S and I always seem to find ourselves here. Even though our lives are very different creatures now.

Really lovely but unexpected moments from the music fest today—
Another photographer beckoned me up onto the stage when he saw that I was just shooting from the stairs. He was really nice (in a very 𝘬𝘶𝘺𝘢 kind of way).
When we passed each other on stage at one point, he very lightly tapped my arm.

I covered a local music fest earlier today and the last band I stayed to shoot was made up of some musicians familiar to me because I used to be in a few bands years ago (believe it or not). My old drummer, J and I locked eyes on the stage with recognition, and a small smile.

“Every answer I need is already on its way to me.” A couple of months ago I wrote this down along with a few other sentences and posted them on the wall beside my bed. I read them every day. In this short span of time I've already realized what I've been searching for, for pretty much my whole life.

Last two months of the year and I can feel the exhaustion already. At work, things have gotten really busy, and with all my other projects, I recognize that I have to be extra mindful about getting enough rest. (Rest ≠ doom scrolling.)

I only just got around to listening to this now, even though the album has been out for a few months already.
Of course no one else sings this like Koji Tamaki, but I absolutely love this really tender, more restrained cover of ‘Melody.’ Shiho Ochi’s voice is perfect for this song. 🌻

There are photos I took that I couldn't bear to look at for the longest time because they reminded me of a really difficult period. This is one of these photos.
I recently opened up those folders and from the sheer volume, now I know: No matter how dark that time was, I was always making pictures.

Yesterday I did something that both surprised and terrified me all in the same moment. I volunteered to photograph 2 upcoming events. Actually, it was more proactive and confident than I'm making it sound. That's what surprised me, plus the fact that there was no hesitation to ask. Who even am I?
