I’m Fine

May 14, 2026June 17, 2026 Nate Ellingson

I came home from Saudi Arabia, stopped swimming, and told my doctor I was fine. I said that for twenty years. It didn’t make me stronger. It just made me sicker.

Finally Found

May 11, 2026June 17, 2026 Nate Ellingson

Simply Human

Standing at the edge of Horicon Marsh, I watched different species share the same water without conflict. Nature figured something out that we are still working on. Everyone here. Everyone welcome. All living as one.

Not Forgetting

🧭 Your Journey Host

Nathan Ellingson

Nathan Ellingson

Welcome! Here you will find my personal reflections of life, photos for my book, and fun and inspirational videos. I am a US Air Force veteran, writer, musician, web developer, aspiring photographer, and father of three living in rural Wisconsin. I find philosophy in night walks with my dog and meaning in the world around me one photograph at a time. When I am not writing or taking photos you will find me diving into Marvel, Doctor Who, or whatever music is currently keeping me sane. MyAnthologyOfThoughts is my collection of images and reflections on life, humanity, and the journey home. I'm happy you are here, enjoy!

Fuel the Journey

If my writing, photography, or videos have brought you something worthwhile, feel free to buy me a cup of tea. It means more than you know.
