Ikigai

Ikigai is a Japanese concept all about finding one’s passion in life; finding joy in living, in whatever form it takes. My ikigai in this life are my husband and our children; no matter where we are together I am home. Photography is my passion. Teaching my craft is also a thread woven into this tapestry of joy. Music. A very few close friends whom are like gold. A simple life. I recently saw this quote on The Love Yourself Challenge — “I want my heart and my passions to be the most beautiful things about me.” That is ikigai. What’s your ikigai? If you want to explore this concept further through beautifully written words, art, photography, and recipes, I recommend Kinfolk, volume 8. My family and I have witnessed so much natural beauty this summer that I have had the privilege of capturing through my lens. Each photograph conjures up distinct memories and feelings. I share these moments in time with you today.Thank you for stopping by. XO
