2019 is starting of so great and it’s only the second day in! Not only has it started with a bang but I’m already feeling inspired after day one of Brooke Shadens Create your story practice! I felt so lost in December for so many reasons creatively and wasn’t able to shoot that much so I spent my time playing around with this old image. I wasn’t sure what the outcome would be - nor what I was doing when I was playing around with it but it shows you that sometimes when you are lost and unsure you have the power to change what you feel and make and the world in which you live in! The power comes from within and I feel this is a great way to share how I want my 2019 to be! I’m going to help construct and change my world, my art, my mindset to get me further in life!
Be sure to let me know what you think of this image and check out my website for prints or contact me for interest in collaborations or shoot info .

Any single parent knows the seemingly unending challenges in raising children by yourself.
I am a single father to three of the most amazing girls that I've ever met.
I've tried to raise them to be compassionate, considerate... to be responsible and to have good judgement... to understand that their actions can make some difference in our world... that they have within them the power to make changes to our reality...
Today I am so filled with pride.
On May 20th my daughter came home with a brood of tiny ducklings in her tee shirt.
She had tears in her eyes.
Mama duck was killed by a car and the ducklings were milling about their mama's smooshed body waiting for some miracle that would never come...
They must've just hatched because they were so tiny and helpless... cute with their fluffy yellow and brown down and their tiny little duckbills...
My daughters decided that they'd raise these little fuzzballs...
They researched and they learned all about the care of ducklings... they took turns staying up late to adjust the lights that kept them warm... they'd read next to them and watch for signs that they were too cold or too hot.
Every day they'd feed them and clean their pen.
In the first days we lost a couple and the house was filled with tears.
It was a heartbreaking time.
Dad had to have the sensitivity to let them absorb this lesson... that there is no substitute for the skill of a mother duck in raising her chicks... that the girls were doing their best... that nature was 'culling' the weakest chicks so that the strong could survive...
And dad had to leave the room for a few minutes after trying to teach them that one.
They had to raise these ducklings and I had to raise them.
Still the tears flowed and there were a couple of duck funerals in our backyard... one of my daughters got really upset and claimed 'this is all my fault!'
I let the lessons sink in and I encouraged them as much as I could... I never did anything more than capture the ducks when they got out...
They knew that they were doing this on their own.
As the little ducks grew the joy of watching them grow overcame the sadness of the early loss and their waddling around the yard made us all laugh and smile...
Each day the girls took care of them... each night they put them to bed in a tiny pen in our shed... in the morning they'd put them in another pen theyd built in the yard... give them baths with the hose and feed them...
The little ducks grew and they grew so fast and pretty soon we all knew it was time to let them go.
I had told them in the first days that if they could raise just one of the ducks to maturity that they'd done a good job.
They raised four.
Today we let the last one go... 'Feathers.'
She'd become quite 'imprinted' on us... she was the one I'd run into in my bathroom... she was the one who thought she was a person... she was the one who'd walk into the house if the door was left open... she was the one who expected a seat at the dinner table...
We drove in my truck to the pond near our house and my youngest daughter insisted at the last minute on carrying Feathers in her arms so she could give her one last hug.
There would be no more baths with her duck friend.
There were some tears as we said goodbye and Feathers waddled into the water...
She let out some quacks of joy and she looked really happy.
Then she ran across the water and joined her siblings who'd been in the pond for two days.
She started eating right away.
My daughters tears dried up and they became filled with pride as Feathers started swimming and cavorting with the others...
They knew right there that they had done this...
I told them how proud I was of them and gave a round of hugs and took some pictures.
The proudest one at the pond right there was me.
It's moments like this that make all of the challenges and all of the struggle so worth it... these moments are the payoff.
Moments when you see the product of the way you've raised your children.
These girls will make a difference in our world.
They already have.

El 28 (Lisboa, Enero´2011)
Ya, ya se que es muy típico ir de turismo y cumplir con las "obligaciones" pero en Lisboa... es una gozada hacerlo. Sí que es cierto que la magia de la primera vez es imposible (esto imagino es aplicable a todas las cosas) pero bueno, esta vez agarré el Eléctrico como dicen allí nº 28 (el de los turistas que le llaman) y me dediqué a realizar un curioso (o no tanto) experimento, consistente en disparar cual francotirador cada vez que realizabamos una parada. Como podréis imaginar (y si no, os lo cuento yo) en una ciudad como Lisboa, son múltiples y constantes aunque ésta que veis aquí es de las pocas que en mi humilde opinión tiene "su aquel"... En fin, que si alguno no ha visitado ésta maravillosa ciudad que lo haga YA.. solo por subirse en este tranvía antiguo y dejarse llevar, merece la pena el Viaje...

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead
In the Mid 70’s Nicola began his life as an explorer by scuba diving in the caves of central Florida, in conjunction with 10 years of ocean diving, spending many hours on the wrecks off of North Carolina.
To date, he has participated, organized and/or lead over 40 caving expeditions in the Americas, Oceana, Africa, Caribbean and Europe. Today he spends most of his free time caving, being a public speaker, and further developing a story that he first heard as a rumor in Ukraine 20 years ago; a story of how a group of Jews survived the Holocaust by living in a cave for over a year.
To date, he has confirmed the story by locating 14 of the original 38 cave dwellers, co-authored a book that led to the making of a documentary about their experiences.
Nicola runs the Priest’s Grotto Heritage Project; a genocide awareness project in which the grandchildren of those who lived in Priest’s Grotto Cave during the Holocaust will be working hand-in-hand with the grandchildren of those who lived above the cave in building an exhibit to honor what those courageous 38 did so long ago, and hopefully, by keeping this story alive for future generations, prevent such genocides as the Holocaust from ever happening again.
Chris Nicola received a Citation of Merit from the Explorer’s Club for his work bringing the Priest’s Grotto story to light.
