sometimes books translate my thoughts 2

things I've been thinking about writing about
but then i read them.

"Maybe that was it, that i was a reading person, or a mini adult or an old soul, because i just never got the rules of high school.  It all seemed silly.  All the big emotion and drama and all the gushy love and the spitting hate and the lip gloss reapplied and reapplied and reapplied in the smudgy mirrors of the girl's bathroom.  ...I tried to be a part of it all, but inside i knew i was only faking."

"I forgot my camera and had to go back upstairs to get it.  Not taking my camera was the same as going shopping when you don't have money.  You go shopping without money and you see a ton of things you can't live without.   You have money and... nothing.  Going somewhere without my camera meant i was sure to see a hundred things i wanted to capture but that would be forever lost."
-D. Calletti


"Because life is short and God is in control,
there is no reason to be bitter when someone hurts you."

to old books: i love you

here are some things i bought today.
it may not look like much to some
 but i'm over the moon happy right now.

old books (and their illustrations)
are probably one of the most understated and under appreciated things in the world.












may the chase always be exciting and the good guys always win
