road to joy

i have officially been inspired. by what? i'm not sure. by life, perhaps.

we got electricity on day eight. it was glorious and magnificent and it made me realize how much i take every little thing for granted. then again, don't we all?

i hereby declare that i'm going to become a more rounded person. i want to learn to do as many things as possible. i want to learn to sew my own clothes. i want to become a better artist. i want to write. i want to be able to communicate to other people through my work and their eyes. how? now that's a different question entirely. but, i'm going to do it. somehow. somehow i'm going to make myself proud.
