Learn to know yourself. . . to search realistically and regularly the processes of your own mind and feelings.

Essentially, no one can control what other people think of the final outcome. Once it's done, the audience will like it or not, they may even think I'm an idiot. They can also think I'm brilliant or whatever, I can't control that. What I can control is the joy in putting it together, the process of the work itself.

Nothing is ever the same twice because everything is always gone forever, and yet each moment has infinite photographic possibilities.
We want clarity -- and God gives a call. We want a road map --- and God gives a relationship. We want answers -- and God gives His hand.
Join with those who sing songs, tell stories, enjoy life. . . because happiness is contagious. Join those who walk with their heads high even when they have tears in their eyes. Avoid those who. . . have never shed a tear
