Searching


Why aren't things this cool anymore? Sigh. I can scour the earth, dig, look, touch, collect and save but I'll never really be able to walk into a room that gives me the feeling this picture gives me. I'll keep trying, I know. I'll keep searching. Every time I find something that strikes a nerve, I'll set it aside in hopes maybe that somewhere, somehow, maybe I'll find what I'm really looking for.
