So I begin

So many ideas and thoughts fly through my head on a daily basis.  Most of the time they flutter about and seem to disappear before I can anchor them to anything.  A blog...something I tried before and dropped.  I keep thinking I need to try again.  Why did I give it up last time?  Living in Tunisia post-revolution means our internet didn't work reliably for 6 months straight.  When it took me 5 hours to upload a photo it was easy to be discouraged.  Also I realized that my focus was too narrow: I was blogging as a way to build our new photography business.  In reality, most of what I think about or want to write about is related to images but not necessarily wedding day photos or newborn babies.  I want to explore is what it means to live cross-culturally in dramatically changing times, what it means to create, and what it means to unexpectedly become the mom of a 6 year old little girl.  So many things I want to explore and find answers about; and a blog seems like the right format to do that.  Will I be able to keep up?  I'm not totally sure, but something in me tells me I need to give it a try!
