For as long as I can remember, I have been treading water, barely keeping my head above the surface, afraid of what lies beneath. Only now have I come to realize that it is below the surface, in the depths of the unknown, where the beauty of life resides. I am ready to surrender myself to the unknown and drown in its beauty. Here are some random thoughts and images from along the way.

Regardless, I don’t know what is more pathetic, the pretentious roles that many of us unwittingly adopt or the fact that I remember Nada Surf.
