I like not having a conversation that doesn't need to be had. Simplicity is useful when the mind doesn't feel it necessary to empty itself constantly. I like the occasional pause, the itinerant journey, the time slowed and can appreciate what you have to share.
Find me an adventurer, collector, designer, writer, outdoors-man, artist... I enjoy conversation, food, cooking, friends, ideas, inventive objects-minds, interior designs, decorating, landscapes, photography, architecture, history, travel, antiques, timeless craftsmanship and you, maybe. Why NOT?!?
I am a Mississippian and have a knack for living. I've been to the world and have come back to myself.
Enjoy your visit: say hi and share anytime :)

One year after a devastating earthquake killed an estimated 222,000 people and left 1.5 million people homeless on January 12, 2010, Haitians continued to endure appalling living conditions amid a nationwide cholera outbreak, despite the largest humanitarian aid deployment in the world.
Now two years later, MSF is increasing hospital capacity in earthquake-affected areas as 500,000 people are still officially displaced and access to health care is nearly non-existent.

How About That of the Day: A particularly strong storm that struck the Middle East this week unearthed an ancient marble statue presumed to be of the goddess Aphrodite.
From MSNBC’s Photoblog:
The figure was found half-buried in the sand by a resident walking near the shore in the southern [Israeli] city of Ashkelon. In addition to the statue, experts identified pieces of a mosaic floor from what’s thought to have been a Roman bathhouse. The artifacts are part of a cliffside archaeological site that collapsed when high winds and waves hit the shore.
“The sea gave us this amazing statue,” Yigal Israel, an archaeologist with the Israeli Antiquities Authority, told Reuters. The statue stands about 4 feet (1.2 meters) tall and weighs about 440 pounds (200 kilograms). It’s thought to date back to the Roman occupation of what was western Judea, between 1,700 and 2,000 years ago.
