tooth fairies and other things to believe in /  by admin

In some aspects, I've not strayed very far from the little boy I was many years ago. I still believe in the tooth fairy, love, G.I. Joe, and that a brand new pair of sneakers make me run faster and jump higher.

Looking back, probably the biggest difference is that my heroes today don't wear capes or emblazoned snazzy letters with lightning bolts on their chests. I’ve never seen them wear utility belts either. But I can always count on their lyrical poetics of the human soul and a few guitar strings to save me from the deepest wretches of my worst nemesis.

My days are now more layered. They offer me more, including those things I believe in.

With my very first post of daily images, I've already cheated. Let's just call it research and development for working out the design details for this new journal and visual diary thing.

This image was taken on December 17th, 2010, just days before Emma Hern and the Offenders hit the recording studio to record their first album. I believe in lots of things. One of them is this band. Their music reaches in and touches my soul.
