It’s been a really long minute. Eight years or so since LiveSalty.com was a project that I paid any attention to. I am sorry about that. Not for you, for me. This blog was a place of comfort and focus for me in the past. People read it and, to be honest, that was probably part of the problem. I’ll write more about that in a minute but, for now, I am coming back to this platform.
The written word has always been so powerful for me. In school I was able to get my feelings on paper, walls, screens, wherever. Getting your feelings out can be a powerful exercise. It allows me to read back my feelings in black and white and process them. I process visually so being able to read back is helpful.
Still images and video are also mediums that help me process and I haven’t had that for the past near decade. Oh, it’s my own fault and I am certainly not blaming anyone but this time around I don’t plan to share it with very many people. If people find my words/images/films organically and they find value in them then they are welcomed to hang out but I won’t be pushing it via other channels. This is a record for me, my kids and my wife.
The photo that accompanies this post was a quick iPhone photo taken for the purpose of securing a liquor license for a new restaurant I was a part of opening. It didn’t open and it never will. More on that later. More on a lot of things later.
I already feel better.
