Slow Smoke Out Of Chimney Top | 4.19.21
Today, I want to talk about you. All of you, because you’ve heard from me sixteen hundred dozen times. You know what I want, some simple house with some simple peat smoke rising from the chimney, far away from all things, staring out at some sea. What I want to know is, what do YOU want? When you look forward at the future of your dreams, what is it you want? If you close your eyes and dare to dream, what is the landscape of that future? Is it seaside, is it mountains, is it city lights in skyscrapers tall? What illuminates the magic “someday” in your mind? What is it you’re working for, building towards, fighting to find? Who do you wish to be when you get to that perfect place of stillness we’re all aiming at?
I wish to see how wide the scope of our dreams truly spans, I want to see the geography of your hopes. What will come for you, if you get what you wish? Tell me, tell us, and let us support each others far away plans.
House on some hillside
slow smoke out of chimney top,
you lost in a book.

I have very similar similar desires as you, which is why I've always been so attracted to your work! I'd love to live in the English countryside for a period of time, tucked away in rolling hills and solitude. Long term I hope to live in a cabin in the woods a few miles from a small town that is built off of community and farmer's markets. Your words always feel like home to me and reflect so much of what I would love to create. Thank you!!!
I want to build a house in the country with my partner. Something simple, but beautiful. A front porch with a swing for sure. We'll have plenty of land and space to do what we want. He'll have a barn where he can do his woodworking and grow his business. We'll grow herbs and vegetables and anything else we want. We will still go into the city often, but we will enjoy living on the outskirts where it is more peaceful. My company will be thriving and I'll be shooting wedding films and any other type of film work I want. We'll be financially secure and able to travel any time we want. And oh do we want to travel. Far and wide. Domestic and international. I want to explore the world, camera in hand. Notebook ready to write in. I would also love to be a published poet. My partner and I will both make money doing what we love and get to live exactly how we want.
Above all I just want to remain open and be willing to accept whatever life has in store. I want to dream, but not plan too rigidly, so that I can go with the flow of life and enjoy it no matter what. I just want to live a life full of love. I want to feel it, capture it, film it, write about it, and be it. Always.
