Finally, the world is winding down. The e-mails are slowing, the phone quieting. Christmas is, for me, a time to catch my breath. I am going to try once again this holiday week to do some meditating. I think for me this requires some degree of disconnection. I dislike most media anyway, so staying away from that will be easy. I will take photos, blog, read, and write.

My therapist says I have changed. Glad to hear it.

I want to photograph creative tools. They are, I think, radiant. We all have them – computers, looms, sewing machines, cameras. They provide and attract their own light.
