I wrote this text on the 21st of March, 2024. It was a day when I could say I had been fasting for 48 hours every four days for over a month.

AI is limited because it won’t invent anything new; everything it knows has already been invented by human minds.

Sometimes, a simple change in the weather is enough to revive not only the world but ourselves.

In today’s post, I will try to explain why I do street photography.

I wrote this text on the 16th of March, 2024. It was a day when, in 2024, the first storm, a mighty and unexpected tempest, occurred in Warsaw.

I do not want to be trapped by the external world, with wealth and luxuries at the forefront.

This text refers to the post “The Forbidden Fruit,” and it provides insights into my book collection.

I read Andrzej Sapkowski’s “Witcher” as a teenager. Still, I’ve never played one of the most popular games with the same title.

The longer I do intermittent fasting, the more I feel insatiability is a natural state of the human body and mind. This approach to eating has not only improved my health but also deepened my understanding of our natural hunger patterns.

The song “100 Years Ago” inspired me to buy The Rolling Stones album on sale on the Taschen website.

I think the main point in balancing broadly defined issues is to know when to say to oneself, “Enough is enough.”

I look up at the sky practically every time I leave the house to go to the office or, for example when I go to do street photography.

Art tells about reality because it springs out of this reality from which it develops.

Today (I wrote this text on the 4th of March, 2024), I will try to provide the benefits of listening to Metal/Trash music.

While walking, doing street photography, and writing, I am in a systematic, ongoing dialogue with myself.

I do not want my artistic oeuvre to be a moment. I want it to be a process, a lifelong project that will last for the next 60 years.

I wrote this text on the 29th of February, 2024. It was a day when, not the first time in my life, I told myself I should cherish a kid living in my mind, heart, and soul. It’s a form of self-care that’s often overlooked but so crucial for our well-being.

I do not want to be a comforting artist, photographer, or writer.

The title of this post is cliche. Still, every day, indeed, is the most important.

What does all this mean? All things don’t matter at all in the face of death.

Get up because today can be your life’s first or last day.

While walking and doing street photography on Warsaw’s streets on the 23rd of February, 2024 (it was also the day when I wrote this text), I ran across a mirror.  This unexpected encounter sparked a wave of spontaneity in my street photography journey.

I will try to explain how to control the mind in today’s post (I wrote it on the 22nd of February, 2024).

The song “Vital Signs ” by Rush, from one of the greatest rock and roll albums, “Moving Pictures,” inspired me to write this text. Its profound lyrics and captivating melody sparked a journey of self-reflection and understanding that I’m excited to share.

For the knowledge of people living in the third decade of the XXI century (I wrote this text on the 11th of February, 2024), planets Uranus and Neptune are quiet worlds. Why?

Since I started regularly and consciously doing street photography, I feel I am in my prime the whole time.

Today (I wrote this text on the 18th of February, 2024), I will try to explain how little I need for happiness.

The last time (I wrote this text on the 17th of February, 2024), I noticed I often use the “The more I do it, the more I desire to do it” phrase. That’s why I decided to write something about it.

The older I am, the more I see (thanks to reading) that humankind aims to explore the far side of space and the inside of men’s minds and bodies.

This text’s title is a quote from the Rolling Stones song “Sway.”

Millions of music fans ask themselves the same question: Which band do I prefer? The Beatles or the Rolling Stones?

Undoubtedly, my beloved Kamilka is my rainbow.

I sometimes think about whether I have faith in the future.

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.
