With inspiration from my dear sister-in-law, Rachel, I embark on this adventure - capturing an image every day for a year both to have for myself and to share with you. My hope is that through this effort, I will "keep peace in the noisy confusion of life" - taking time to notice the small things, celebrate the big things, and more fully appreciate the gift of each new day. Of course, I had every intention of beginning this on January 1st - but when that day came and went without a blog, Rachel assured me that this project can begin on any day. After a slow start, I really hope I can pull it off - and that you'll enjoy it!

Day 25 - February 3: Thank You

My brother, Pete is a builder in San Francisco.  He was a philosophy major at UC Boulder, and has studied both the teeter board at circus school and Buddhist meditation somewhere other than circus school.  He has a unique view of the world and is one of the most genuine and joyful people I know.  He also writes a great thank you note.  Today Lane received a handwritten note from Pete that was Pure Pete.  He talked about how much he loved the book she'd sent him on graffiti art in San Francisco's Mission District and that finding the pieces he hadn't yet seen would be like going on a treasure hunt.  His letters are full of life, just like Pete, and receiving one today reminded me of two things - how much I love receiving handwritten notes in the mail and how much I love Pete.
