in the past month, i’ve come to a conclusion that will save myself and hopefully take the company to the next level. although i don’t know if it will actually pan out, considering the challenage of finding someone approraite to ‘replace’ me as the head cheese, i am very much embracing the idea on numerous levels. i think after watching the power of myth, it became apparent that i wasn’t following my bliss. it’s not so black and white because as i still have the problem with the concept that is it the ego that is following it’s bliss. in so as much, my responsiblity to the bigger movitvation, keeps the bliss following in check. in some regard, i consider the path of following my own bliss seems unresponsible or unworthy. somehow, i’ve created a line of logic that limits the “ability” of photography/art to benefit humanity on the level that i feel the need to operate at. obviously, art/photography can be the ‘clothing of revelation’ and inform and inspire humanity. maybe it is my own naviety to believe that i want a more direct/viseral experience to that process. i am aware that it’s all about trade offs. when one works at a higher level (ie art/philanthropy) it can reach and inspire a lot more people than a personal direct approach to evalvating the human condition. i am sure in hindsight, my rational will evolve to the higher level of the process but for now, i am knee keep in foundational exercises. even before anything has happen, even the simple choice to try to let go has already breathe fresh air into my life.
