My Wife’s Fight With Breast Cancer
one of the saddest and most beautiful photo essays I’ve ever seen

I don’t think I could ever be this open photographically showing my wife slowly dying. I couldn’t do it, but this is beautiful.

I’ve scrolled past this like 4 times today and I couldn’t reblog it because it’s too hard. It’s hard to see someone you love go through this. But I’m going to just suck it up and do it, because there needs to be more research done to aggressively fight this disease and find a cure.

I cried. =/

Carrie Mae Weems. 

Although I am obsessed with all of Weems’ work, there is a special place in my heart for her The Kitchen Table Series.  I think what gets me about this series is the simplicity; The ability to convey so much from one scene, one location, one family is amazing.

from Robert Bringhurst, “These Poems, She Said”

poetryeater:

Self-love is an ending, she said,
and not a beginning. Love means love
of the thing sung, not of the song or the singing.
These poems, she said….
                                    You are, he said,
beautiful.
              That is not love, she said rightly.

The purpose of poetry is to remind us
how difficult it is to remain just one person,
for our house is open, there are no keys in the doors,
and invisible guests come in and out at will.

Rejoicing in ordinary things is not sentimental or trite. It actually takes guts. Each time we drop our complaints and allow everyday good fortune to inspire us, we enter the warrior’s world.
