They gotta live somewhere....
Have a great tuesday my friends!
I passed him as I cycled through Toronto’s theatre district on King Street. What photographer wouldn’t stop to meet this stylish man and seek permission to make a few street portraits? Lucky me, he paused while I introduced myself and explained my Human Family photo project and kindly agreed. He had a quiet manner with a gentle friendliness. Meet Sim.
I suggested we take a few steps to use the entrance to the Metro Hall as an out-of-focus background and we took a few portraits. His sunglasses added a note of style (not that Sim needed any more style) but they also blocked the view to his eyes so he agreed to remove them after the first photo.
When I asked him whether he was going somewhere special or if he usually presents himself with such style he quietly smiled and said “This is pretty much the usual me.” I was aware of what a contrast in appearance we were as I stood next to Sim in my t-shirt, shorts, and running shoes.
When I asked him whether he is originally from Toronto he said he’s actually from Detroit but has lived in numerous places. “My wife and I are quite mobile and enjoy travel. We have lived in Vegas and Los Angeles, among other cities. We’ve been in Toronto for a year and a half but will soon be moving to Florida.” When I asked what kind of work he does that allows such mobility he told me he’s an artist, musician, and style blogger. “They are all pretty portable and so is my wife’s work, so we can live anywhere and continue with our careers.” His wife, I learned, is a free-lance consultant to the insurance industry. I learned that Sim attended college on music scholarships and started out playing jazz and blues piano, then saxophone. “I have always loved music but it took me a while to realize that I might be able to turn my love of music into a career.” Sim's business card identifies him as Fine Artist, Writer, and Musician. It contains the quote "Artists are the guides to the frontiers of you soul." It also has a link to his website where you can see some of his art and read his fashion blog: www.stepintomygroove.com
Sim expressed interest in my background – both in terms of where I am from and my career. When he learned about my working life with nonprofit social agencies he seemed very much in tune with it. “I actually ran a homeless shelter for five years before developing my artistic career.” I commented on how frequently I uncover some point of “connection” with the people I meet on the streets. The Human Family, indeed.
Sim’s advice to his younger self was “Don’t worry.” This sparked a conversation about the challenges of youth and adolescence which often involve worries about career, relationship, and the future. In the end, we agreed, most of us find our paths in life and wind up wished we hadn’t spent so much time worrying about things. When I asked him about a challenge he has faced in life he was thoughtful, then replied “Being a parent is challenging. It’s a lot of responsibility – especially when you have four children.” Our conversation touched on the pros and cons of his family’s frequent moves. His message to the project was “Believe in people.” He expanded this to comment on the importance of respecting others and of understanding the power of human connection which he feels is often not fully recognized. He is a believer in karma.
We parted with a friendly handshake. In the ten minutes I spent with Sim I felt I had experienced a warm, sincere man with a gentleness of spirit.
This is my 755th submission to The Human Family Group on Flickr.

This is a my attempt at making a decora girl on Sims 3. ^-^
I did not make the pose.
The hair is from Garden of Shadows. I can't remember where I got the skirt, necklace and arm socks; I'm pretty sure they're from the Sims 3 Exchange. :)
A busy intersection at the heart of Akihabara, Tokyo’s district mostly famous for its countless electronics stores selling anything you can imagine (giving the district its nickname “Electric Town”) and for being a hotspot of the otaku culture, with many anime/manga-themed shops and cafés.
Alrighty now.
My last upload was "Amy's Nursery" which is the awesome room I used for this picture. Bedding = damn the bedding. The bedding gave me grief. Let's just say I got friskay with the patch tool.
Lulz.
I tried to draw hair on the babeh ;-; I'm sorry, but babies aren't all bald, Maxis. Some of them, like this little sweetie, were born with FULL HEADS OF HAIR DURDUR.
Amy rocks. Her full name is "Amelie Nicolette Walsh". Yes, I changed it. It used to be "Amelia Nicolette" but that just irked me. So AMELIE. It's pretty.
Jason Levine the swearing sex addict = a surprisingly good father.
Faye = crying tears of whatthefuck/OWCH/happiness.
I know it's not supposed to be sparkly and happy because they're not supposed to be happy because they're reckless teens and aren't generally supposed to reproduce at that age. But c'mon. I mean, C'MON.
Make allowances D:
Oh, and Jason got a new skintone. I know, spiffy, eh?
I generally wasn't happy with Bethany's hospital gowns on MTS2. So I made my own.
And is spiffeh :D
Works as maternity too, durdur.
LOOK I ACTUALLY CONVERTED THOSE FOR ADULTS TOO!
MATERNITY + HOSPITAL GOWNS = SENSE.

Well its raining and I'm looking back through some of the archives . I've realised there are a huge number of photos I've never done anything with and others I think I can improve on. So I'm going to post a couple of oldies each week to add to the online collection before I forget where they are.
This is from 2008 and my trip to the Ethiopian Highlands . Somewhere I hope to return to. It's such an inspiring , historic and misunderstood place.
This is a stitch of two images.
