It's Been Too Long

I cant believe its been so long since I have entered anything on this blog. I started this thinking that there was no lack of topics I could pick from and I had a bunch in mind but I totally forgot about this whole experiment I had here.

This whole blog is about documenting the city of Oshawa and the changes it goes through because change can happen so gradually that you dont even notice. I, like this city have gone through a lot since last time, good and bad and I thought about just giving up on this but I feel like its necessary that I keep pushing on.

Last year I lost a friend of mine in a tragedy that anyone who reads or watches the news im sure has heard and that is Rick Kelly. Rick along with his wife Leslie and his son Nathan were violently and fatally attacked during a birthday party. I knew Rick for about 10 years and he was a loyal friend of mine. After this happened I really didnt have much passion for anything and I threw myself into my work and found myself leaving town frequently for up to 2 months at a time. While some of the people that knew his family still havent gotten over the loss I feel that if they and I cant get over it then it will continue to ruin lives.

So, im back and god willing I will make a successfull go of this thing.
