    I’m a Seeker

    Gold Marbled Pelikan M200 with Brilliant Brown ink

    “The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they’ve found it.”

    Terry Pratchett

    I continue to journal because I’m a seeker, not necessarily for knowledge and answers, but for a thin thread of wisdom.

    None of those excuses are true…

    Winter evening sunset in eastern Colorado

    I am fully aware I do not get out for many nature and landscape images as I have in years past. Maybe, just a season in my life? I can’t point to one specific reason but here are few excuses I’ve used; sloth, age, lack of desire, need a better camera or lens, I’m not good enough, too far to drive or a few other excuses I can conjure up in my mind. Now that I’ve written that it’s obvious I need to have a talk with myself because none of those excuses are true. Gratefully, I’m not beating on myself about this and still taking images focused more on street and documentary.

    Truth

    Lupines

    Men cannot understand Truth because they cling to self,
    because they believe in a love self,
    because they believe self to be the only reality,
    whereas it is the one delusion.

    The Way of Peace by James Allen
