The Café Table
W:

How would you describe this chapter of your life, and what do you think its teaching you?

I love this question you’re imposing - where I am in life.
Its explosive, exciting. [I’m] learning how to surrender to situations, and kind of go with everything and just trust the process. You know, with creating art there sometimes comes sacrifices when you’re truly passionate about your craft and what you want out of your art or connection with people. It’s been really exciting.

Its overwhelming to hear, getting all the validation from people like ‘oh you’re on to some shit, this is cool,’ but not seeing any of those results. If people only knew I am just living at home with my folks, scraping by, not having a real job.
If they really only knew the half of it. They just see me as the camera man who takes the good shots. You know, its overwhelming to get that validation out of my head and lose that sense of ego, and not let it rush to my head, but also at the same time, recognize that I am on an important path.

When you ask for things, or manifest things, it never shows up the way you expected, but it always comes in some way. Going back to surrendering and letting go, trust trying to embrace it all.
From other people’s perspectives, yeah my life might be a little crazy. Yeah, I maybe sleep in the park sometimes if my friends don’t have a place for me to crash, but I don't know. It feels like I need to be here right now, capturing these moments, meeting these people, documenting my life and just capturing a little bit of everything.
