(I feel my life is zipping by as fast.) Trust you are all well.
Many people who are on disability depend on Second Life as an important part of their social lives and as an outlet for creative expression, but they cannot afford to spend of their own money on it. Some are completely house-bound, and are all the more reliant on Second Life for social contact. The Pixel To Pixel Foundation assists people on disability by granting them small, weekly Linden-dollar stipends for them to spend on enjoying Second Life more fully than they would otherwise be able to. It was founded in 2009 and exists only in Second Life. Teleport
* Things I've been doing these days *

- Yeah.. I know.. I haven't been taking pictures since the beginning of the year... I need to go out more often, see different things. I'm tired of my pics and I'm out of inspiration... T^T

* Coisas que eu tenho feito esses dias *
- Tenho feito várias coisas ao mesmo tempo. E isso é o que eu descobri esses dias: não importa o quanto você se esforce pra fazer alguma coisa, se alguém fala que é uma merda, bem... é uma merda =/
- Estudando inovação tecnológica e capital de risco (se alguém estiver interessado em investimentos para a minha futura empresa de design, entre em contato.. ehehehehehehe ;P)

- É eu sei... não tenho tirado fotos desde o começo do ano... Preciso sair com mais frequência, ver coisas diferentes. To cansada das minhas fotos e sem inspiração... T^T
For our second assessment we had to make a picture in the studio with a technical camera. It had to be a still life with at least three objects in it.
We only worked with this technical camera for two times and it wasn't easy. Fortunately we did it in groups so we could help each other:)
To achieve something great in the world you need Passion
To fulfill vision, a great leader’s courage comes from Passion
Whatever it may be, you must find your Passion
If passion drives you, let reason hold the reins
Follow your passion and success will follow you!
Never underestimate the power of passion
Without passion religion is spiritless
Without Passion history is meaningless
Without Passion art is useless
Follow your passion and success will follow you!
When you take up a mission with passion
There are no dreams too large
No innovation unimaginable
No frontiers beyond reach
Follow your passion and success will follow you!
Our passions are the winds that propel our vessel
Our reason is the pilot that steers her
Without winds the vessel would not move
Without a pilot she would be lost
Follow your passion and success will follow you!
There is no end and there is no beginning
There is only the passion of life
Passion is universal humanity
Passion is the genesis of genius
Follow your passion and success will follow you!
POOJA NATARAJAN
"Every part of this earth is sacred to my people. Every shining pine needle, every sandy shore, every mist in the dark woods, every clearing and humming insect is holy in the memory and experience of my people. . . We are part of the earth and it is part of us. The perfumed flowers are our sister; the deer, the horse, the great eagle, these are our brothers. The rocky crests, the juices of the meadows, the body heat of the pony, and man all belong to the same family. . . What is man without the beasts? If all the beasts were gone, men would die from a great loneliness of spirit. For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man. All things are connected."
—Chief Seattle, Chief Seattle’s Testimony
Life is simple.
Get born, mess about with wax crayons, do some kissing, go to work, play bingo.
The end.

[...] Your life is an island separated from all other islands and continents. Regardless of how many boats you send to other shores or how many ships arrive upon your shores, you yourself are an island separated by its own pains, secluded in its happiness [...]

Street candid taken in Glasgow, Scotland. I simply loved the form of this guys shadow combined with the complex lines and circles of the bicycles.
All's quiet, all's calm on a foggy day at Sauvie Island, Oregon.
