Time

The water of the valley stream is always flowing. It races on, not pausing for even an instant. Its sound, to me, is the sound of time. ~Shundo Aoyama

Dear fellow bloggers, I will be spending less time with blogging so that I can focus my energy on creating my online portfolio for getting a new graphic design position. I will be posting some and commenting here and there. I will miss the daily visits, but will not be gone forever. Enjoy your time by the valley stream. Peace to all.
