Interests
Nothing can stand up to love and compassion. And nobody on this planet can never ever truly put in to words its true meaning. Love it’s what you are made of. Your very essence. Your soul. Your energy. Every thought. Every move you make. Every decision. Is made from the driving desire to learn to master the essence of your very being.

But it’s so difficult in this body. You are being blocked constantly by your human mind. By anger, hate, jealousy, envy, greed, expectations, stress, sickness, vanity, bad habits and the list goes on. Why do all of these things feels so wrong to us? Why do all of your instincts scream out in agony, this feels bad! But instead of focusing on the very cause, and learn from it. You get caught up in the symptoms of the cause. You react automatically, and with no skepticism to the feeling. And then the patterns of bad habits start to take its form. And before you know it, it becomes a part of you. You accept it as your personality. That’s just the way you are you say. That’s my thing. More and more you ignore all of the signs from your soul. You want to hate. They deserve it! You want to scream! They don’t listen! You want be angry! They are so stupid. But all you accomplish is adding to all the negative energy in this world. Adding to the violence, to the hate and to prejudice. Making your own world, your own existents a more difficult and sad place to live.

But love cannot be stopped. It’s always there in your mind. Telling you to love and learn. Helping a neighbor. Giving to charity. Petting your dog. Making dinner to your spouse. Helping your kids. Always reminding you to love. Letting you know that this feeling is better than anything else. You hate those bad feelings! Your bad habits. But why do I have them? Because you let them in. You let them sneak past your guard. Nobody to blame. Just your own carelessness. Thinking, I am what I am. And saying, you are to blame for making me feel this way. But isn’t it your feelings? So next time the negativity and the bad finds you. Use love and compassion as your only tool. Towards yourself and to others. If you do this you will always move forward. And lead a happier life. Spreading your loving energy to everyone you care for. Even to a total stranger, maybe in traffic, or at the store, that was very angry that day and was going to resort to violence and hate. But because of your loving energy the stranger was compassionate instead. Sometimes you may fail. But you will always be aware of it. Guarding your mind. So, only one question applies.

What would love do?

I find your images very powerful - deeply reflective. They evoke serious contemplation, especially 'Exists Only In Love' and 'My Body First' - as a religious brother these two have provide much thought and prayer.
Your work is wonder-full. Thank you.
