"Understanding Life"
I can remember when I first fell in love with photography. I was looking at a picture of a kid from Africa. I was going through a National Geographic magazine in history class. The picture was a disturbing Photograph of a small child who obviously hadn't eaten in a long time as a vulture waited for his death.Questions always soared through my mind like "Where was God ?" My father picked me up from school that day I can remember showing him the picture I ripped from the magazine He told me "This Child might be a king in heaven" now I don't know if this was a quick response a father gives when his 12 year old son ask one of those random questions. But now being 30 years old his answer still sticks with me. I beleive that through all of our sufferings we will be rewarded. Life is all about what you do and how you do it. Treating people well is something that you should apply to your daily life. Watch the way you speak because words can be sharper than swords.
Like 2pac said
"It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
and let's change the way we treat each other.
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
what we gotta do, to survive.

It's a new life it's a new day! (or is it ? )
Going through a divorce can be compared to loosing someone through a death. It's been 4 months now, this is the time I begin to meet new people. The only thing about new relationships is you need to learn to welcome new problems. At times I wish I could just get on plane and leave this country! But with a new business and kids this just doesn't seem possible. I blame television for giving people such a screwed up version of what love is. I would often sit in bed and dream about going to different countries shooting gorgeous pictures and meeting gorgeous woman only to find myself shooting kids that won't sit still for the photograph. I know they say life is what you make it to be but what if its already set in the opposite direction is it possible to do a U~turn?
I am hungry to live! I need change ! I need to start falling In love with the man in the mirror. I remember reading this celebrities success story in the story he spoke about all the hardships he went through to reach his success he slept in cars ate only ounce a day. For some reason I wanted this struggle I wanted to go through these hardships to reach my goal. Well after being homeless loosing everything I am now coming out the cave with the same version of reality!
It's a new life it's a new day!
Welcome to reality
