The sun was shining today. Amazing how life is so different with a little winter time sunshine.
Have you ever forgotten to appreciate the place you live? I realized during the outdoor, sun catching, adventure I took today that I have. I realized that I have forgotten to appreciate the beauty of Morgantown, and the surrounding mountains. I found myself on a great lookout, which enabled me to grasp just how much I was missing, and just how grand this place I am living in is.
Did you ever talk to a foreigner about where they are from with rapt attention, because you are so amazed that they could be from a place so different? I am going to work hard on adopting the mindset that for someone this place that I live would be that foreign place, and I am going to try to appreciate it for its uniqueness, even if I sometimes feel that it is just my normal place.
I was thinking about maps of the area for the decoration.
My name is Thomas Stollar. This is my last semester of graduate school at WVU. My thesis deals with introspection, and gaining a better understanding of how everyday experiences shape human character. The project is process oriented with the intention of documenting my most thought provoking experience for each day of January 2012. Each experience will be symbolically decorated onto forms like these. In the end all of the forms will compose a metaphorical version of my personality.
