Each morning I browse my catalog of photographs and from time to time I find something that has sat for months or years without ever having been created into a piece of artwork I share and display. The photograph above was taken almost 8 years ago, on August 29, 2014.
While I probably haven’t reviewed it in quite a while I found it today while looking for inspiration for my daily thought. The first thing I did was to check the news headlines, I don’t watch television news. I was so dismayed by many of the headlines I saw. When I began my search for inspiration I saw this photograph. Looking at the light and the early morning sky, the picture was taken at 6:27 AM, I thought, be the light. As the sun comes up for the day a new beginning is upon us, be the beacon of light for someone. Set a positive example for the day, even if you only inspire yourself. I believe this is even more important today with all the world events surrounding us, many of which are far from positive or inspiring.
This, I hope, will become my goal, to start each morning by working to be the light, and find the hidden potential for each day. Create art!
