A Perfect Morning Beach Nearby
Three things in human life are important. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. And the third is to be kind.
Henry James
I love the buzz of Honolulu
We all woke up this morning and we had with it the amazing return of our conscious mind. We recovered minds with a complete sense of self and a complete sense of our own existence — yet we hardly ever pause to consider this wonder.

Many years ago, I participated in some research with psychedelics, and remember vividly looking up at a night sky and thinking that my "normal reality" was as distant as one of those many stars. Moreover,WHICH one of the many WAS it!?
Anyone can shoot chaos. But the most perceptive photographers can make compelling pictures out of uninteresting moments.

Looking back over the years, sure there are things I would do differently. But that's different from regret because I'm glad I do see those situations and people differently now. It's called growth and perspective. And it also makes me patient with others. Because sometimes they just don't see it yet. But they will get there like I am. The best people don't try to instruct you. They just invite you to walk along if you like. And there's something so interesting about them that you do want to walk along with them a while. . .
Love You,

Love the Henry James quote. Those shots are magnificent!
ReplyDeleteI am reading a Jan Morris book at the moment where she too emphasises the importance (and necessity) of kindness.
ReplyDeleteI would happily walk with you. Any day.
