Photo Friday – Forest Path

Some beautiful, atmospheric light painting in a forest this week. Such a lovely photo!

Isaac is a pretty interesting guy – I’mve just been reading this post about truisms on his website:

A SENSE OF TIMING IS THE MARK OF GENIUS
A SINCERE EFFORT IS ALL YOU CAN ASK
ABSOLUTE SUBMISSION CAN BE A FORM OF FREEDOM
ANY SURPLUS IS IMMORAL
ANYTHING IS A LEGITIMATE AREA OF INVESTIGATION
AT TIMES INACTIVITY IS PREFERABLE TO MINDLESS FUNCTIONING
BEING HAPPY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANYTHING ELSE
CALM IS MORE CONDUCIVE TO CREATIVITY THAN IS ANXIETY
ENJOY YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU CAN’T CHANGE ANYTHING ANYWAY
GRASS ROOTS AGITATION IS THE ONLY HOPE
HABITUAL CONTEMPT DOESN’T REFLECT A FINER SENSIBILITY
HIDING YOUR MOTIVES IS DESPICABLE
IF YOU LIVE SIMPLY THERE IS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT
IGNORING ENEMIES IS THE BEST WAY TO FIGHT
IN SOME INSTANCES IT’S BETTER TO DIE THAN TO CONTINUE
IT’S GOOD TO GIVE EXTRA MONEY TO CHARITY
IT’S IMPORTANT TO STAY CLEAN ON ALL LEVELS
IT’S NOT GOOD TO OPERATE ON CREDIT
IT’S VITAL TO LIVE IN HARMONY WITH NATURE
MOSTLY YOU SHOULD MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS
PEOPLE ARE NUTS IF THEY THINK THEY ARE IMPORTANT
SELF-AWARENESS CAN BE CRIPPLING
SOLITUDE IS ENRICHING
THE SUM OF YOUR ACTIONS DETERMINES WHAT YOU ARE
THERE’S NOTHING EXCEPT WHAT YOU SENSE
TORTURE IS BARBARIC
WORDS TEND TO BE INADEQUATE
YOU CAN’T EXPECT PEOPLE TO BE SOMETHING THEY’RE NOT
