"I call a man awake who knows in his conscious reason his innermost unreasonable force, drives, and weaknesses and knows how to deal with them." _Herman Hesse
Narcissus and Goldmund has been another important life colliding Hesse experience for me. I welcome it.
Would I be content later in life if I don't dedicate my youth to the chase, the pursuit, the dream?
Such conviction asserts that outside thrill-based athleticism is indeed the dream, but is it right?
"Anything authentic starts with curiosity." _Tate
I included the photos from the Oregon Eclipse Gathering here that relate to the people/family, what ever have you. There is a theme of sorts. Flower of Life.

In selecting photos I feel as though I am approaching a sort of maturity. I notice I am less partial to 'good' photography as compared to emotion/depth in a moment. I always selected with this in mind. I feel it coming to a head as I erase my duties to the gods of photography, and maybe it is getting me closer to the essence I seek anyways.
