Sunset Rise
It might not look like anything special, but this photo is one of my favorite pictures that I’ve ever taken. Thanks to my mother and her mindset of having a healthy outdoor life. I like to go for walks, especially when it’s a clear sunny day out. I love to put on my favorite music and just go walking for hours. One day when I was out walking one spring evening this sunset stood over. And I’m not afraid to say I thought it was a beautiful thing.

Incredibooks: No One Has To Know
Once upon a time I heard someone utter the phrase “what you don’t know can kill you”. After reading “No One Has To Know: A Captive Romance” by Carin Hart, I am now under the firm belief that what you don’t know can keep you alive, even if in the not so healthiest of ways.
