I stare blankly at the space in front of me.
Not at anything or anyone in particular. At times my body moves without thought, driving or walking to a familiar place, looking out of a window with my chin leaning into my palm. I could be seated on a bench enjoying the feel of the breeze on my skin, taking in the sounds of the city. I’m in the clouds dreaming and wishing I had more time. I’m torn between my desire to create and my devotion to the lives that I care for. It’s one thing for me to want to starve as an artist but it’s not just me anymore. I laugh inwardly repeating familiar words in a sarcastic tone, “What about me and my dreams?” “Who is John Galt?” I suppose my worries are insignificant when you view them on a larger scale. I wander through the haze of my thoughts, venting out my frustrations until I reach my highest, lowest and then find my sanity again. Something catches my eye and I’m brought back to reality. It takes another moment for the shapes in front me to become recognizable. When I reach for my tea I find that it’s gone cold. Nothing new.

It’s just so amazing how you can take such great photos from yourself!
Dude that ain’t easy! 💚
Thanks and you’re right, it’s not easy. Sometimes it doesn’t turn out well even when I really want it too. Other times I can be done with less than 100 shots.
I bet! I have done that a few times and they turned as awful as yours are great! 🤣
Interesting setup and nice warm light

I really enjoyed your writing, you have many deep and true words from my point of view. Sometimes [not to always say] dreams are affected by things that happen around, there are situations that make us pay more attention to those things and our dreams are paused there. I think that the war in which you want to do and what you must do is very long, if you are very brave and constant and manage to get rid of all that you get a middle ground between the two of you will be very happy.
The photo is beautiful! I love! Just one thing, I can draw a picture with that picture.
Greetings dear Vermillion :).
