Writing, Photography, and the life lessons I learned from Street Academy
There is a part of me that, when my emotions are low, I try to find a way to combat the lowness. And although I haven’t done it as much of late … it’s time to break out the camera and take a walk. And for me, the walk yesterday was in the Adirondacks. Just…
