Well lets see, I havent posted an image in over a year and a half, looks like I have some explaining to do.
First off, my life has completely changed since last I was here. I recently graduated from Syracuse University's Whitman School of Management with a dual bachelors degree in Finance and Entrepreneurship.
So what am I doing with this degree? .... basically throwing it away.
For those of you who remember (or care to read my journal) I posted a while back about seemingly having a lack of emotion. Well I found my emotions, and they came from a most obvious place, just took me a while to accept it. ... Children.
Throughout college I had

THE resaon I came to the London program here at SU. Although i am not a fan of the field of photojournalism, it is teaching me new things and helping me to become a better photographer overall. I still have this nagging feeling though that i am not forfilling my potential at all. I have yet to produce an image here that i am truely happy with. I had a meeting this past week with Doc to discuss my portfolio and my progress this semester and he basically stated the same thing. He did add one thing that i had not thought about. All of my images lacked one critial element... EMOTION. Why didnt i think of that? I had become so focused on

Wow... you were actually on here a few weeks ago?!?!
"To tolerate a behavior is to support it, and to support it is to promote it."
How can you possibly believe that? Apart from the fallacy of the first statement it is abhorrently facist. To tolerate behaviour that you don't believe in is to understand that your own opinions on life might not be the supreme truth and so shouldn't be inflicted on others.
A world without tolerance would leave few alive.

The was a statement a friend told me a long time ago in regards to a relationship.
While I agree that is does appear facist, are there not practices that you yourself hold such distain for that you would not associate yourself with those who do them?
This was mainly the thrust of the statement, for as you say that a world without tolerance would leave few alive, so too would a world with total tolerance (think if everyone just tolerated a mad man's behavior, or a rapist , or a serial killer, etc.)
Instead of being totaly one way or the other, one needs to use their own personal disgression to determine which practices to tolerate and which not to. And simple put, if you can not tolerate a certain behavior then it is also your responcibility to remedy the situation. This is not to say you attack the other person whose behavior you cannoot tolerate, instead you find a way to deal with the behavior whether through avoidance, debate, or constructive intervention.
Perhaps though I should reword the statement to better reflect that instead of having people draw the conclusion that you have. Any suggestions?

Ok, that's much better than what I read initially and I agree with you I think!
How about something along the lines of watching behaviours you dislike without voicing your opinion is the same as being content with them. But, um, elegantly and soundbitey as before.

Dude! You are alive too!
Great to see you're still making the rounds.
Sad to see you no longer post.
Stop by anytime.

Hey man, sorry I didn't come by last time. I tend to lose track of messages these days. Haven't really kept up with my photos either, to be honest.
What about you? Still taking courses and shooting away? Hope all is going well for you.
