More thoughts to ponder

One day you will ask me which is more important... my life or yours. I will say mine and you will walk away not knowing that you are my life.
Kahil Gibran.

The only difference between stumbling blocks and stepping 


stones is the way in which we use them!

Photography has many similarities with poetry.  There's not a strong relationship between the disciplines, but there is a tight one between the sensibilities.  

Black and white is minimalist.  Poetry is just literature with the water squeezed out of it and good literature is just journalism that doesn't grow old.  

This says a lot to me a...bout what makes good photojournalism.
- Larry Towell

Never believe that a few caring people can't change the world.   For, indeed, that's all whoever have. 
-Margaret Mead




No matter what looms ahead, if you can eat today, enjoy the sunlight today, mix good cheer with friends today, enjoy it and bless God for it.

It is my firm conviction that human nature is essentially compassionate and gentle.  That is the predominant feature of human nature.

-Dalai Lama

If you always do what you always did, you'll always get what you always got!

The most precious gift we can offer others is our presence. When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers.
