I had the chance to visit Monticello, the home of Thomas Jefferson and the history lover in me could not miss the chance to do so. While the historical significance of the residence is undeniable, the truth still remains that it was and still is woven into the fabric of a very unfortunate time period in the history of America. As a citizen of this great land, I am pleased to have been able to visit a historical landmark and learn a bit more about it and those who lived there. As a black man I left with something more powerful than fear, anger, anxiety or pride… I left with gratitude!

Thank you to anyone who has made my life easier or better in any way.

My view of what those before me saw.

My moment at Monticello…

There are many different ways to live a life. Some of us live with a 5-year plan, and then there are those who live day to day, but how many of us live in a moment? With the various moments we all experience, our lives are filled with tiny time filled treasures and through photography, I get to not only be selfish and keep my moments, I also get to share them.

Welcome to my journey… See my reflections… Share my moments…
