The City My Heart Loves.//

Growing up outside of D.C., and having a father who constantly exposed us children to politics,

and the crazy world that goes with it has made me grow up with a deep love,

respect, and honor for our nation's capitol.

Anyone who knows me,

knows D.C. is my favorite city,

and always will be.

It's a city that can instantly calm my heart,

bring my life and dreams in to focus,
and causes every fiber of my being to come alive.

If ever I need to clear my head,

need a good dose of hope,

or just want to quiet my heart;

I know that taking a stroll through this city will do just that for me.

Here are some photos I took the other evening when taking the usual stroll past the monuments

(never gets old, no matter how many times I do it)

btw:

sitting at the World War II Memorial is the best place to think,

and going to see good 'ol Lincoln is the most iconic experience for me.

I have such deep honor and respect for that man.

peace. love. joy.
