You

Give me dreams. Settle in my mind like a fine dust; a colourful fog. Be the wind beneath my sails for I have lost all will. My body moves like a sluggish drunk, no purpose and no goal.

Except you. 

Always you. 

Only you.

Haana

I had the pleasure of shooting a girl on Saturday who had never modelled before. There is something special about shooting new girls. They have the shyness of inexperience mixed with a boldness from being picked out. It's a beautiful thing and all girls should possess it, even for a moment. So here is a little of Haana.

Up the Garden Path

There is a lot of push in our culture to chase the passion of one's heart. Happiness. Success. Wealth. 

This can lead to good. This can BE good. 

But what if we were never meant to chase these things?

What if these things were always meant to be side products of a much bigger purpose?

It's like bagging the guy that gave you goosepimples when he walked past. And then realising that a boy can never fill up your heart.

Or like buying that silver watch that goes so well with your black dress. Only to realise you need a black watch to go with your Nike's. 

We could literally spend our whole lives chasing things under the notion that they will satisfy us when they may not be the thing that will bring genuine satisfaction.

Let me throw something out here.

What if feeling good isn't meant to be the ultimate goal? 

What if being successful was never meant to be the ultimate goal? 

What if. Self satisfaction. Was never. Meant. To be. The goal.

Let's not waste any more time.

The only way to truly live is to constantly make sure that the passion of your heart is based on truth. 

So chase down that truth. And then chase down the passion based on that truth. The other stuff will happen along the way.
