Around | Brooklyn + Queens, NY

(Overly) inspired

According to the fat dictionary, the word inspired means “having a particular cause or influence.”

Lately, I feel that I’m just overly inspired and my interests are far too varied and vast. At times, I feel I’m going mad.

I’m currently in such a funny middle place between moods and seasons. Feeling impressively present and happy overall, but at times anxious about the big, bad future!

Being in NYC last week, certainly didn’t help, although I had the time of my life there! I constantly felt bombarded by contradictory thoughts and feels and the desire to feel and experience everything in life.

This photo is from one of my long, long walks through Brooklyn last week.

Many photos to come from Katherine and Caley’s beautiful Saxapahaw wedding and  NY.

On beauty

“Beauty has no obvious use; nor is there any clear cultural necessity for it. yet civilization could not do without it.” – Sigmund Freud

I’m currently writing from a lovely apartment in Brooklyn. Staying with Sarah these days and keeping myself somewhat busy with long walks, picture-taking, filming, reading, writing . . . NYC has been surprisingly lovely up to this point, and I feel that  it will take me a while to work up the courage enough to leave this place.
