Dreams revisited

Dear family, friends, and dreamers of all sorts,

Unfortunatly the powers that be made an unexpected choice for me the other day. My van was broken into and my computer and hard disk were stolen along with some other less important stuff. This means that much of my material was lost along with my computer and I will no longer be able to post anything to this blog as my camera is not of much use anymore and i lack the system to process images and upload them here.
In the course of my travels this time around I have met many who have not appeared on this page. Some, the reason I don't know, others told me out right that they have no dreams. I still find this hard to believe, I believe that many have forgotten their dreams, or have become afraid to dream any longer because so many have been lost or stolen.
I thought much about this the day proceeding my invasion. I went through many emotions, and have surfaced. I realized that my true dream is to learn constantly from the art that I make, to inspire myself, and to work on my self to become a more caring, empathetic, understanding individual. I realized that my true dream has nothing to do with that computer nor does it have to do with making a book, nor any other material item, those are merely stepping stones or tools used to attain my true dream.
I will continue, send my camera into storage, buy some crappy point and shoot or disposable cameras and enter the world again with my notebook and my inspiration. The down side is that you won't be able to follow along for the time being in the capasity you once did. I plan on writing here from time to time, so keep on checking in case I include one of my many ramblings.
Feel free to contact me if you wish.
And I apologize for the inconvenience.

Keep on Keepin' on
Petter
