Every photograph has a story to tell. Tales that make you laugh, weep, think and remember. Some tales are fleeting, some linger. Hopefully these tales and frames will linger long.

DAY 151
Sometimes, when you surrender
is when you see
the most beautiful sights.
Sometimes, when you surrender
is when you experience
the most magical emotions.
Sometimes, when you surrender
is when you hear
the sweetest of sounds.
Sometimes, when you surrender
is when you win.
Surrendering is not giving up
Surrendering is not losing.
Surrendering is not cowardly.
For surrendering to the real you
inside of you
the great I AM
is the most natural thing to do.
And what is natural never hurts.
It was a beautiful evening. Golden light, beautiful skies and scores of pigeons homing in. I went berserk with my camera. I said to myself, oh what a beautiful picture, i will get the best of shots.
After ten minutes of continuous clicking all I got was fuddled, muddled, painted-with-human-arrogance-images.
When I am confused, when I am frustrated, when I am lost and angry, I surrender.
I surrender to my Inner Being.
And that's what I did.
I heard the sweetest sounds, saw the most beautiful images and experienced the most wonderful feelings in the stillness inside me.
I realized I was forgetting to enjoy what was before me. Instead I was busy trying to capture that joy in an arrogant manner that only humans are capable of.
Once I began to enjoy what was before me the way it should be -joyously and fully, things began to fall into place.
Images rolled in one after the other. The camera in hand, settled to capture it peacefully. And all along I reveled in my surrender.
