Luminosity

Photographers say lighting is everything. Everything + when the subject is lit from within.

Place your bet

“You are the light of the world.” There’s no wiggle room here. This is either unequivocally true or Jesus was mad as a hatter.

Seer

Until a man clearly sees that change is necessary, he will not change. His first step is also his last step—to see himself as he is. In the seeing is the doing.

Creation

Beauty is heedless. Do you think God is concerned with human affairs? Or the sun with what it illuminates?

Plumbing the depths

It helps to abandon notions of good and bad. We don’t really know what is good and what is bad. Former addicts and alcoholics tell me that addiction was the best thing that ever happened to them.
