Doing street photography is a privilege. War in Ukraine reminds me of it.
I wrote this text on the 15th of November, 2025. It was the first day since I started writing texts for my blog (I started doing it in May 2017), when I wrote three texts in one day. What was the reason for it? Of course, first of all, to do it, I had to sleep 10 hours that day. Indeed, it happened. Also, I needed a sufficient dose of inspiration to write three subsequent texts in one day. Luckily, I still have many inspirations from the thoughts I wrote down in the past and saved on my private Gmail account. Last but not least, I realized I should sometimes try to increase the number of texts written during a single day, because the number of texts waiting to be scheduled on my blog is slowly decreasing.
That’s why I decided to write this text about a privilege.
After all, I think the possibility of not only doing street photography, but also writing and managing a blog is a privilege that many people underestimate. I do not know if in the future the Russian trolls will attack my homeland, Poland. If so, when I receive a call-up to the Polish army, I will go there, because I cannot imagine that Russian trolls will conquer Poland. I read too many historical books about our difficult relationship with Russia. Thus, I cannot imagine Putin’s government in my beloved Warsaw or Brok.
They would have to kill me first.
That’s why, predicting that war can occur in Poland against the Russian nazi troops, I consider all my creative endeavours as a privilege, and I am doubly motivated to keep going with all the things you see on my blog, because I never know when war will erupt and if I die during fighting against the Rashists.
