the purple girls

That's what I think my little friend on the right is saying. The girls were very excited that they were all wearing a shade of purple. They gladly posed for the photo.

It was several years ago that I realized that while I was at my full time office job, there were people in my neighborhood and community hanging out all day with kids, spending a good chunk of time playing and just looking at the world. As strange as it seems, it was a revelation to me. I started to rethink why I wanted to spend my whole day in the office working.

Now, I don't spend my whole day in the office, but I still spend a lot of time in front of the computer. I think one reason it will take me so long to get this site together is because I'm tired of the computer. I'd rather paint, which is what I've been doing lately.
