The Beginning

Day one of my photojournaling expedition finds me in the throws and backroads of Antrim County, Michigan. This flawless beach sits on the edge of Lake Michigan. I'm not sure where this month-long photojournal will take me. I hope I am afforded some clarity through this cloud of grief I feel over the loss of my father. I tend to visualize my grief as waves, so I find it appropriate that water is lapping at the beach in this photo. I also know that Dad would not want me sitting around in a depressed stupor, thus I perform a cartwheel. I cannot really tell down from up right now, anyway.
