Hello Steemit,
I am a nature loving dog walker and amateur photographer finding my way in a big new city! Some days can be more intense than others. Today was a really fun day, but quite a lot of hustle-bustle. I bike between dog walks and when it is cold here in Chicago (which has been basically everyday of the last 4 months) my little feets and hands get cold! But I keep going, because I love the dogs and it's a side hustle to keep helping me work towards my creative dreams. I think this is important for all of us to move forward with, especially right now in the world.
Moving around in the spaces we find ourselves, I often find my mind just existing in the moment. There is truly stillness and simplicity within all motion and activity. Comparing these themes to architecture, I like thinking of positive and negative space dynamics.
Today, I was walking around Ukrainian Village neighborhood again. I am not a Christian, or particularly interested in organized religion, but the architecture I've been exposed to here is really interesting to me. I like to think of some creatures from another planet coming here and contemplating the meaning humans ascribe our built environment. What would they make of our symbols?
And I had a lot of fun with a whole bunch of dogs today! This is simply a short post to show you all some snapshots of my day, and a couple of my thoughts along the way.
Wishing you all wellness and progress in your creative dreams too! What are you working on? I'd love to hear about it. I think creativity is what keeps life going, and we enhance it by sharing :)
