self-portrait, 2009





there was a snow storm tonight!
and kenton made some really good food for us all.


ill put some photos from camping in utah up soon soon, i think.

i helped katy move a bunch of bricks today. she is going to start making a garden outside of her apartment building. the garden has two sections.. one is for flowers and one is for food.

i have been reading the autobiography of thomas merton and he is definitely worth reading.


"Love seeks one thing only: the good of the one loved. It leaves all the other secondary effects to take care of themselves. Love, therefore, is its own reward."

"We have what we seek, it is there all the time, and if we give it time, it will make itself known to us."

"To consider persons and events and situations only in the light of their effect upon myself is to live on the doorstep of hell."

"We are not at peace with others because we are not at peace with ourselves, and we are not at peace with ourselves because we are not at peace with God."
