Pain and pleasure, like light and darkness, succeed each other.
We are not here to curse the darkness, but to light the candle that can guide us thru that darkness to a safe and sane future.
It always surprises me how much my followers appreciate how candid my photos are — they may not have a particularly unique subject, but it's more about the light you shed on the subject than the subject itself.
Sometimes our light goes out but is blown into flame by another human being. Each of us owes deepest thanks to those who have rekindled this light.
Light in Nature creates the movement of colors.
To live in the light of a new day and an unimaginable and unpredictable future, you must become fully present to a deeper truth — not a truth from your head, but a truth from your heart; not a truth from your ego, but a truth from the highest source.
You can't study the darkness by flooding it with light.

So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing.
Talking about dreams is like talking about movies, since the cinema uses the language of dreams; years can pass in a second, and you can hop from one place to another. It's a language made of image. And in the real cinema, every object and every light means something, as in a dream.
When a moment in front of me appears to be particularly special, whether it be by beauty or experience, I capture it. I usually find a reason to justify taking that photo — symmetry, or color, or contrast — and it's my hope that my photography sheds light onto what I see and do on a daily basis.

I don't think anyone is ever writing so that you can throw it away. You're always writing it to be something. Later, you decide whether it'll ever see the light of day.
