Update: 10/27/2025
On January 22, I uploaded a blog post talking about the past several years. Struggles I’ve had, including the passing of my mother eight months prior, touching slightly on her and my relationship. My progress and failures, the present state of things, and possible directions for the future.
On January 25, I received a call from one of my cousins saying my dad wasn’t doing well. I spoke with him for a moment, then I left to travel down to see him. It was the first time I had seen him in over 16 years. I didn’t know at the time, but it would be the last time. Four days later, on the 29th, he passed. I’m glad we had that afternoon. I will not go into it here; maybe at some time in the future. But since then, I’ve been in a bit of flux, to say the least.
When I finally remembered about the post, I removed it from view. I’m hoping to do more here on my site. For sometime now I’ve been in this in-between phase. Almost like I’m in recovery from the first half of my life. I’m including links to both my Instagram and YouTube accounts. I hope to begin adding to them with more regularity. We’ll see how it goes; all we can do is try. So I hope you head over and click follow and subscribe respectively to be kept in the loop on what I’m up to with my photography. Don’t forget to sign up here for a quarterly/monthly email. Haven’t worked out the details of that one yet either, fingers crossed.
