My mentor told me two critical things a long time ago. . .
The two maxims seem to be somewhat in conflict with each other, but I can see a bit of light in their combined wisdom.
#1 — Only when you take photos that "make your heart jump to your mouth" your images *might* come out extraordinary. (Translated from another language, this sounds tortuous. It essentially implies — unless you take risks, you cannot expect rewards.)
#2 — If you chase your passion/madness long enough, someday, you could find yourself teetering at the very edge. And it won't be a surprise if the abyss eventually sucks you in. [For those who care, passion/madness = Junoon.]
This image brought back his words saliently to the forefront of my consciousness. In any case, with every click of my shutter, I pay him a silent homage.

Wearing uniforms of hesitation.
It has not yet catch up to be
my partner or my snitch.

H σκιά μου, παιχνίδι του ήλιου μόνο.
Φοράει στολὴ δισταγμοῦ.
Δεν έχει ακόμα προφθάσει να είναι
σύντροφός μου ή καταδότης.

..................... تتساقط اوراق عمري تباعا , فأبقى وحيدا مجددا
ويبقى ظلي هو رحلة نجاحي الوحيدة , لعوالم تخترع في كل ساعة
وابقى مستترا بداخله .. فاخترع واعيش معه, حلم النجاح والانعتاق والمجد
فالدنيا تتبدل نهارا من معرض فمسرح , فمدينة
فاتنقل واشهد بكنفه قصة النجاح .. فتعرض لوحاته صباحا .. ويطرب جمهوره بصوته الشجي عند الظهيرة
وفي اخر ساعات النهار يغدو عراب المدينة ومخلصها
فيقيم العدل ويطرد الاشرار
..
وعندما نعود ليلا احمله على كتفي
فينام هو .. واصبح وحدي بلا ظل
واغلق باب غرفتي كي يبقى نائما
فأصلي وابكي .. علي اتخلص منه
..
وأهذي مجددا
فاخترع مسرحا ومعرضا ومدينة .. بلا ظلال
فتصفق الجدارن وتبتسم لي اللوحات وتتمايل الستائر
واصبح ملكا ..وحيدا ..
وانام مغشيا .. حالما بصباح جديد ..
منتظرا ظلا , عله يخبرني اننا عرجنا الى السماء
وانه سيتركني الان .. والى الابد ..
فعندها ترافقني صلاتي وأصبح ظلها .. علنا ندخل باب السلام
