Today, I will write some thoughts on inspirations.

The older I get, the more I realize that we must lose to win.

The older I get, the more I realise that it is much better to take a longer sleep rather than eat breakfast.

Today (I wrote this text on the 8th of November, 2025), at the beginning of walking, doing street photography, and rucking, I told myself, “Enjoy discomfort.”

While walking and doing street photography, I do not think that my pictures will become historical and documentary pictures someday, in the future.

Sometimes, there are moments in my life when I think I control everything, literally every aspect of my life. Then, suddenly, I wake up.

In old age, I would like to look at my childhood photo and say to myself that everything was and is fine, even though it was damn hard. 

I think that’s true wisdom in life. Living in the present, being mindful of the here and now, is the key to finding joy in everyday life.

Some memories seem as distant as stars.

Does writing to the imaginary “my Dear Friend” mean writing to myself? I believe so.

Is pain my main driver to live?

There is no straightforward explanation for how I write my texts, my Dear Friend.

I decided to write this text so that if someone searches for “Street Photography Warsaw” on Google, they will find my website. Let’s see if this magic happens!

Sometimes I imagine Warsaw as warfare and that I am a soldier with a heavy backpack holding a gun in my hand (instead of a camera).

Today (I wrote this text on the 24th of October, 2025), I will try to explain what it means to be a free artist for me.

As far as I can, I would like to avoid being pigeonholed.

Often, when I think about my following text or my next set of photos (can you imagine, my Dear Friend, that in 2025 I haven’t published a single new set of images? ), I often think that what I’ve come up with

Sometimes I wonder what new life my photos will take on after my death.

It is 2 a.m. on the 20th of October, 2025.

Today (I wrote this text on the 19th of October, 2025), I will explain why street photography has unlimited possibilities.

Today (I wrote this text on the 18th of October, 2025), I will write some thoughts regarding people’s expectations regarding life.

Today (I wrote this text on the 17th of October, 2025), I will write about what we should focus on.

We often hear we should be better versions of ourselves. But what if our best versions are already behind us, gone forever, and all that’s left is a downward spiral?

Every day I wake up wondering whether today I will take the best picture of my life or write a groundbreaking text.

I do not take painkillers. I take painhealers.

I wrote this text on the 13th of October, 2025, after 12,5h of hours of working in my professional job.

Today (I wrote this text on the 12th of October, 2025), I will provide some insights about reality.

If you do not know what to do in your life, take a blank sheet of paper and start drawing or writing. Free up your mind by creating something out of nothing.

Today, I will provide some insights taken from Led Zeppelin’s song “Over the Hills and Far Away.”

Today (I wrote this text on the 6th of October, 2025), I wanted to write something that would inspire you, but I did not know what.

While walking, rucking, and doing street photography, I often let my mind wander freely. What does it mean?

I started street photography because I did not want my dream to remain a dream.

Today (I wrote this text on the 3rd of October, 2025), I realized I have been doing street photography for 10 years.

I know I wrote similar texts in the past. Still, I decided to write whatever my mind would tell me within the next thirteen minutes. Why?

Today (the 30th of September, 2025), I realized that two days ago, on the 28th of September, 2025, I published what turned out to be my 2000th post on my website.

I wrote this text on the 29th of September, 2025. I had a hard day at my office job. Once I returned home, and I wanted to write something meaningful, I told myself that sometimes I do not have enough mental resources to write something profound.

I wrote this text on the 28th of September, 2025. It was a day when I realized that low temperatures are getting closer.

When I walk and do street photography, I feel like I’m moving through an art exhibition, which makes me appreciate the beauty in everyday urban moments.

How? By helping me develop better endurance, awareness, and steadiness, which are crucial for capturing candid moments.

Today (I wrote this text on the 22nd of September, 2025), I will try to explain how to be comfortable with the uncomfortable.

Today (I wrote this text on the 21st of September, 2025), the ‘voice of reason’, a metaphor for my inner wisdom and self-awareness, spoke to me.

I see power in my complexity of who I am and what I do, which is in professionally working in finance, blogging, writing, doing street photography, and rucking.
