100 Days. 100 Questions. I went on a trip a few weeks ago with some really incredible people. It helped me find my faith in connection again. It was so easy to be around them, and that was a breath of fresh air. I often feel like I am performing humanness. Like I become a character that adapts to different people and settings and plugs in the appropriate emotions and expressions of them. It becomes tiring. I didn’t feel that way with them. I felt very at peace and welcomed and seen. It was incredibly intimate for a trip with thirteen people, most of whom were strangers. It got me thinking about connection, and then I binge-watched a medical tv show and made myself anxious thinking about quickly our lives pass. Then Mala and I spent a day filming reels, and laughing about how…pointless some of it is. There’s no real purpose beyond pushing yourself out into digital space, hoping to blow up so you can make more money. I don’t begrudge it, I’m doing it too. But, it made me think about how I actually want to use this space and the chance I have to reach so many people. It made me think about my love for writing and story-telling and how much I’d enjoyed blogging because I could share my stories and hopefully have them connect with others. So, over the next 100 days (give or take), I’m starting a project inspired by @nnekaj . I’ll be answering a question that you ask me about life/beliefs as honestly as I can and giving space for you to answer too. I love editorial photography and aesthetics, but I can get in my head about it so hopefully this pushes me to make more images as well. TL;DR, here’s to returning to creating purpose and opportunities for honest conversation. (at Butre, Ghana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSr5Ng8KRYa/?utm_medium=tumblr -- source link
