It's me. I chose this. I chose all of this — this rock has been waiting for me my entire life. I’ve been moving towards it my whole life.

Judging by my degradation in the last 24 hours, I'll be surprised if I make it to Tuesday.

I stepped out of my grave and into my life again.

I'd fallen in love with a woman but she broke up with me and I was devastated. Six months later, I went into a suicidal depression from the break-up of the relationship, but I resolved to not do what my friends had done. And so I reached out for help

It adds up, but I deem it all necessary, even the camera gear. I enjoy photographing the otherworldly colors and shapes presented in the convoluted depths of slot canyons and the prehistoric artwork preserved in their alcoves.

Adversity is the source of our deepest growth and greatest blessings; embrace it, dare to seek it.

Bring love and peace and happiness and beautiful lives into the world in my honor. Thank you. Love you.
