the lighthouse







All photos taken by me at Old Point Loma Lighthouse in San Diego, California. I wish I could have taken a picture of the outside of it!

They all called it "lonely", but I think it must have been nice to live there--away from the rest of the world, with only my family (my real family), the sea, the fog, the flowers, and the sailboats which I give light to; a place where time stops. I would never leave.

  2. Thank you so much, you are so kind (and kindness is such an important thing).

    The inside of the house feels a bit like the half of me which only wants to go home; the other half loves the adventure there. I try so hard to be the second one, but I find myself pretending that I'm home whenever I feel tired or alone. (I suppose the reason why I wouldn't mind living there is that I imagine my home as looking a little bit like it.)
