About Me

If you know me, you know that I like to take pictures. Since I don't get to spend all the time i'd like to with my family and friends, I capture what I can on my little Pentax Optio S6 . So instead of making you read, check these out.

It's all about the choices we make, and the choice to not do anything at all. No matter how you look at it, we are to blame for our actions, or inactions. When you decide to not do anything, you've made the active choice to not do such actions...the intent may have been there, but the choice, that's all you.
At the end of the day, there are some things you just canâ€™t stop help but talk about. Some things we just donâ€™t want to hear. And some things we say because we canâ€™t be silent any longer. Some things are more than what we say, theyâ€™re what we do. Some things you say, because theres no other choice. Some things, you keep to yourself. And not too often, but every now and then...some things simply speak for themselves.
