Photography constantly amazes me because reality amazes me as well.

I want to be insensible to indifferent issues.

My blog is my virtual place of seclusion, where I do not have to read and watch the news.

The older I am, the more I feel that life has no simplistic unitary goal.

I wrote this text on the 6th of February, 2024. It was the day when a new shipment from Germany (from Taschen Publishing House) arrived.

How to feel satiety, lack of nothing, how to desire nothing and stop being seduced by all kinds of desires and temptations?

All things change over time, and someday, my street photos will become much more valuable, even though most are not strictly documentary images.

Last time, I noticed I frequently used the phrase “I wrote this text.” Thus, I decided to write a text about it.

Reading Proust makes me travel back in time and recall my past.

Does posthumous memory have value?

In the middle of winter (I wrote this text on the 28th of January, 2024), I will write about walking during hot weather.

Today (I wrote this text on the 27th of January, 2024), I will write about money issues.

This text won’t be about one of the most meaningful Beatles songs sung by John Lennon, “Nowhere Man.” 

Today (I wrote this text on the 25th of January, 2024), I will explain how one’s mind can be tricky.

Am I denying myself in terms of writing about fame?

The older I am, the more I consider my life to be the aimless journey of a simple man.

Don’t fight against adversity. Accept hardship and misfortune, thank nature deep in your inner spirit that adversity exists, and do your own thing.

If I had to change my profession, I would become a Hunger Coach.

Today (I wrote this text on the 20th of January, 2024), I will try to write about the “Hunger vs. Appetite” battle. This is a battle that many of us may not even realize we’re fighting, but understanding it can have a profound impact on our health and well-being.

The titled question of what we feel and see as an illusion is tricky. It’s a complex and intriguing puzzle that invites us to delve deeper into the nature of our perceptions.

I will try to explain how to slow down artistically in today’s post (I wrote it on the 18th of January, 2024).

Goodness in this world should be sought first and foremost within oneself, not in the external world.

The older I am, the more I feel and see that happiness is a choice.

This text is inspired by both Proust and Dostoyevsky.

This text won’t be groundbreaking in terms of discovering my life’s philosophy and lifestyle.

In today’s post (I wrote it on the 11th of January, 2024), I want to encourage you, my Dear Friend, to find your own path and follow it.

Today (I wrote this text on the 10th of January, 2024), I will write something about learning and teaching.

I keep trying to instill in myself the Stoic advice of Marcus Aurelius, that what is outside my mind has no effect on my mind.

I’ve never written a catchy and cliche phrase about how I love my photographs.

Sometimes, I wonder what the last day of my life would look like.

While looking at my photographs, I sometimes have an impression that odd, otherworldy, bizarre, unexplained, ambiguous, or ghoulish occurrences happened or can happen before or after I took a photo. My pictures live in my imagination.

Today (I wrote this text on the 3rd of January, 2024), I will write my deliberations on fame.

The older I am, the more I feel I read to remain calm.

I’ve built a routine that I do not want to escape from.

Today (I wrote this text on the 31st of December, 2023), I want to state I do not have any plans or expectations regarding 2024.

My ultimate loyalty is to my creative heart, mind, and soul.

Today (I wrote this text on the 28th of December, 2023), I will write about my appetite for fasting.

I don’t comment on current political events because my blog is anti-mainstream.

Just because I feel I’m getting more intelligent as I get older doesn’t mean I’m wise at all. I may just be getting less and less stupid.

Enjoy who you are. After all, you are unique.

The title of this text, “Don’t you think it’s sometimes wise not to grow up?” is a quote from one of The Rolling Stones’ most charming songs, “100 Years Ago.”

I don’t want to stay on the surface of myself. I want to lead a voyage of discovery inside myself – that’s why I create.
