For me, strolling on Warsaw’s streets is like feeling poetry of the mundane reality.
While walking and contemplating many things, I feel alive. While enjoying the present moment, I always feel a deep desire to sketch my feelings and my inner world with words and pictures. That’s why I write and do street photography. I heard many times throughout the period I was managing my blog that some people envy me because I have a hobby that absorbs much of my time and energy. Every time I listened to it, I smiled gently, and all I could say was that it was true and that I was content with this fact. I’ve been doing street photography on Warsaw’s streets for seven years and managing the www.adammazek.com website for five years.
All these activities do not bore me at all. Why?
Undoubtedly, one of the main reasons is that I am continually developing myself. How? By asking questions to myself and trying to answer them. I know there are many inquiries that no one will ever answer (e.g., whether God exists), but it does not mean we should stop seeking answers and solutions. I sketch my reality and insights by writing, among others, this text (I wrote it on the 12th of August, 2022) and taking pictures.
Today, I want to encourage you, my Dear Friend, to sketch your own reality using your imagination.
The truth is that I have no doubts that we all can do it in various ways. I chose to photograph, write, and prepare subsequent “Diaries” editions and manage a blog. I hope you have the possibility and freedom to decide how you will sketch your inner worldview. We all can go our own way (unless one does live in countries like Russia, Iran, North Korea, or China).
