Self Portrait

“you.

not wanting me.

was

the beginning of me

wanting myself.

thank you.”

 

In Wes Anderson's "Rushmore", I learned that it's very simple. You find something you love and then do it for the rest of your life.

 

It's hard, man. Life is hard. Sometimes it feels like a constant run, only pausing briefly for gasps of happiness that I crave like oxygen. Other times it's a steady hike and my eyes are flooded with colours and I feel alive, so so alive.

 

The things I love are as follows.

 

The Great Outdoors

Writing

Photography

Thinking

 

And even if my loose dreams should not materialise, for whatever reason, and I should end up living a solitary life, I think with these four things I'll always be happy. Infact, I know I will. They are my foundations, and no matter how many times my house may be blown down, my soul will always stand strong as long as I have them.
