My life drastically changed when I was in West Texas. The path I thought I was on suddenly disintegrated, and I found myself completely lost and alone. This moment as I drove towards Marfa, tears in my eyes and questioning the last 4 years of my life, became a moment of clarity for me. What was the point of continuing to do this? Why keep going? Was it for me? Was it for the person I thought I would grow old with? I pulled over and watched this beautiful moment unfold before me, and I stepped out into the rain and sun, and I did what I’ve always done. I took a picture. Not for me. Not for her. But because I couldn’t bear to let this moment just exist as a ghost in my mind, hidden from the eyes of all those people who are still in my life. Even if just one of you sees this and feels something, ANYTHING, then I feel like it’s all worth it. And it IS worth it. And I will keep going, and I will keep pushing myself to be creative and to explore this world that is so fragile and fleeting. Thanks to any of you who enjoy this. I’m not done yet. . . . . . . . . . . #texas #TxStateParks #hikingtexas #TexasToDo #igtexas #txbackroads #texashillcountry #texasofusa #TrueTexas #landscape #alltrails #modernoutdoors #roamearth #rediscovertheearth #ViewBug #earthfocus #TLPicks #OurPlanetDaily #lonelyplanet #lpfanphoto #landscapephotography #rainbow (at Marfa, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqWe-hqFWdd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1aorqgxv8iwfn
