A hope that’s tireless always finds it’s way to where it belongs. When you hope, you are the caller, and then matter’s not what is your hope and its shape, hope becomes a receiver. When you work for your hopes, you do as an endeavor, endeavor makes you a believer, and with enough faith, you meet your hope.

Matters of the world are those with with matters of the world, and matters of the spirit are with those with matters of the spirit. This is the difference between fuel and the candle.

The journey of the spirit is deliverance, the more you deliver the spirit, the more spirit delivers you. Knowledge is one way to deliver the spirit, and while knowledge is the way to many things, to the spirit, it is the only way.

You never travel alone, you always travel with your spirit. By the virtue of the spirit, yesterday what was known as the spirit, tomorrow the inheritors of the spirit will know it by a different concept, but return to call it a spirit.

The spirit is sought actively but it’s wealth comes to you passively, once you’ve found yourself in that space, when you’ve truly placed your heart where it is sober, you will find happiness in describing the spirit. And there’s so much to describe of it, you’ll come running towards the words that surround love. Words like compassion, justice, honesty, authenticity, freedom, faith, and fathom.

I’ve chased wisdom for so long, she never encouraged me to write. I see towards spirit and the spirit moves my pen. Writing is in fact an act of photography, where the sun doesn’t, your heart controls the natural conditions of light.

The problem with the world is that all defined in the name of holy and high, all the names, and ways of explaining them, have all been said before, all of it. You can’t make new photographs anymore that sound fresh and rejuvenating. Every faith needs a philosopher’s touch to decorate it’s old building.

Let me say, church is your heart, church is your heart, church is your heart. Say it three times to ensure and assure you, surety lives in heart, not mind. So the photographs are always about increasing amount of clarity. For me, to practice the dance with words is strengthening my faith. If I’ve written it all my life, I know it for sure.

Clarity is surety and surety is faith… or its strength. I can’t move objects by thinking it, but by knowing that objects can’t be moved by thinking, I reached a conclusion that moved me. That everything is moved by the matter of the world, and we can’t move objects against the force that’s moving us all and the universe around us.

A natural force exists that moves objects in the natural way, and we as subjects break this rhythm by taking things from one place to another. But what if, the force that’s moving the objects, is using us so all the objects find their place where they are. What if the universe is not about the subjects, but the objects?

The spirit tells me that the degree of independence we have, from causes and effects of the universe, is tied to the force of attraction. We never follow things we don’t like, what pulls us, places us where takes us the drive. Drive being just another word for passion.

I’ve chased that drive so far, to the places where one asks, “If you could picture everything and not want to photograph it, what would you take a snap of?” I did took a snap, found nothing in the frame but these words, “not taking my picture is the only way to picture me.”

How can you see something without picturing it and what would you picture and focus on if you can’t see anything? Picture the feeling and the experience.

The common truth lies behind things, and it is divided from upfront, sideways, you can always differentiate a body of a man from that of a woman. The way we are created, what’s prominent was placed in the light, what’s hidden was placed in the blind sight.

The people who serve honestly in the orphanage have known and felt God more than I do, but come to the light of knowledge and have the courage to say the obvious thing, that there’s an orphan of God who lives in every child that lives without faith.

So I photographed and orphanage and I learned, man wants to learn about God through signs and miracles he can see, but God wants us to reach his knowledge through what we pursue in our lives.

The spirit tells me, that a man’s tomorrow may die, but everyone’s tomorrow will not until the judgement day arrives and freezes everyone’s today, until everyone’s judged, before stepping into the world of tomorrow. Heaven is the world of tomorrow, where the spirit rules as one, and the spirits feel as one.

Hope only exists in this world, there’s no place for hope in the heavens, when all you want is what you can get, where all you have is everything that you can want, where hope is not needed and you don’t hope, that’s where the spirit of hope becomes the spirit of fulfillment. Where you find fulfillment before you can even begin to hope.

So hope is the only thing that you won’t find in the heaven, love it and learn to cherish it, understand its beauty. While the world is missing fulfillment, the heaven is missing hope. God is closer to you than you think, closer than God, is placed the heaven that you can always own.

The spirit tells me, own your spirit and own your heaven. That’s one way to see your hopes coming alive.
