Realization

In speaking with my girlfriend tonight, I think I came to a realization within myself...

I live through my photography, and my writing, and my art... the things I create. And I always want them to be breathtaking. Not just nice, or good... but breathtaking. It means so much to my heart when people enjoy my creations, and it is soul crushing when the things I create go largely unnoticed.

Which, is most often the case, really.

But why?

I think I now know why.

I create to bring beauty into the world. To show the beauty that I see. To express the beauty I feel inside of me. I want people to see this beauty, to recognize it and appreciate it.

So few people see any beauty in what or who I am. I’m replacing it with what I can give. With what is inside.

Sobering recognition.

You Are Cosmic

Have you ever known someone who has looked at the Moon and said it is ugly?
The Moon is the light in the darkness.
A beacon. Stability.
It is revered, worshiped, and humans have sought to touch it for centuries.

But, without the Sun, the Moon’s power would not be seen.

Likewise, you hold a unique beauty of your own. Your soul holds the energy of both the Sun and the Moon.

You shine a light so bright that it helps others on their path in this life, and you reflect their light back to them, allowing them to see how brightly their own light shines.
