Ok, here we go…

So a new year, a new resolution, one to stick to (hopefully), I even edited the bio etc and plan to be a lot more active here, also I’ll be posting a lot more of my photography here, rather than just dumping it on Flickr etc.
I want to start the year by saying this ” Life is not about being successful, life is about being useful!” and the second bit of idealistic inspiration is “Going into something with your eyes wide open doesn’t mean you’ll see everything that’s coming…”
Here’s a photo, its symbolises 2 things I want to strive towards this year, which tie in very closely with the 2 quotes above, authenticity and purity of purpose!

Maybe its the nature of the current position, being stuck in the middle, never really being able to just go ahead but first having to mediate (directly and/ or indirectly) amongst role players, which essentially alienates you (to some degree) from them cos you cannot be seen to be aligning directly with one, but must rather be seen to be ‘bringing the collective together’. So the reason from my ‘downer’ is more a case of having a sense of ‘grey’ about where things are, and I’m not a ‘grey’ person, I like black or white, I’d rather take a decision and find out its wrong (and take in the experience) than be ‘forced’, due to circumstance to not take a decision at all. Where everything gets ‘mushy’, and one feels (from a mental and somewhat emotional sense) like you are wading through tr...
