DON'T GIVE UP

..This past week we have found ourselves nestled in the mountains of Colorado, rubbing our eyes and scratching our heads and being generally in awe at finding ourselves there. This trip was not anticipated but as we've come home and let it soak in, we are struck again by the serendipity of life and realization that we needed the clear blue skies, the lodge in the woods, and the conversations with the incredible souls we met there more than we could have known. We knew it would be fantastic but we really had little idea how much we would be changed.Coming home has felt like leaving summer camp, with that same hole inside of you, the hole that each person has left behind. The depths to which everyone shared and loved was incredible, and I realized that I'm not always as open or as loving as I want to be. We left with that same hope that even though we are gone from that home Ashley & Jeremy Parsons made and invited us all into, we will continue to remember and take up the call to create fantastic stories out of our lives, and to create images that really matter for the people we connect with.  Dave and I can't thank you Ash & Jeremy enough for the gifts you've given us... !!Words really do fail in these cases to describe experiences like this, so that is why I lean back on images :) A short film up there ^^ and a few stills down below, of our time out in Colorado, that serve to take us back and remind us of everything.Be brave, be you, and don't give up you guys. xo, jennDivide, Colorado, March 2013
