People trying to live their lives creatively, whole-heartedly, with integrity and passion.
"To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget." -Arundhati Roy

The girls I went to massage school with for their strength and grace. My best friend-Maggie, for exploring the world outside herself. Ryan, for letting his true self finally be seen. And saving the best for last....my incredible boyfriend, Greg, for his unwavering patience, strong encouragement, dedicated kindness, steadfast presence, resolute integrity, and for creating with me the relationship I never dreamed I could have.
