there is no ignoring nature in s. america. suriname sits just south of the equator... so, to me, nature was THAT much more present since people live such a minimal lifestyle vs. how we live here in the states. it's easy to ignore a bird when all you hear/see are cars and busses. i was in awe of it all the time; from the plants, flowers, fruits, birds, rain showers and subsequent rainbows. every morning there were 3 or 4 birds having conversations outside my window and it was great to be reminded of their presence. here's some shots i snapped during my stay: dolhpin'sfiya lobbie; my grandma had it growing in her backyardtropical rainforest greenery all arounddelicious custardapple, read up on it here

-the Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

"The secret is here in the present. If you pay attention to the present, you can improve upon it. And, if you improve on the present, what comes later will also be better. Forget about the future, and live each day according to the teachings, confident that God loves his children. Each day, in itself, brings with it an eternity."

"hangin' tough" literally.

"step by step..day by day"!!! that new kids on the block jacket was my prized posession. then one day our family went to, what i used to call row boat peddle boat in SF, and a pigeon took a dump on me..... and my favorite jacket.
