I started out writing that ubiquitous “About Me” segment that is a biography. The origins of how A Bohemia Life came to existence for me.
For decades, I drifted in the macrocosm of ones and zeroes. That version of me as lawyer, analyst, entrepreneur still floats about in the traces of the work left in my wake. They contribute to but are not the nucleus of who I am.
You will know me by the questions I ask of myself than by the answers I find. The tale is in the unfolding of the Odyssey rather than any eventual resting place.
To know me is to know my why.
"There comes a point in your life when you need to stop reading other people's books and write your own" ~ Albert Einstein
My words poured out of me because I had to make space for my heart to grow. My hands press upon my camera's shutter because I long to be shown what my eyes can't find. And in the in-between, I weave and weave and weave. Counting stitches instead of mala prayer beads. A moving meditation with a twine for a lifeline.
“If you feel like you don't fit into the world you inherited it is because you were born to help create a new one.” ~ Ross Caligiuri
A Bohemia Life is the junction where the singularities of my particular Venn diagram collide.
