This is how the entire course of a life can be changed: by doing nothing.
The only sadnesses that are dangerous and unhealthy are the ones that we carry around in public in order to drown them out with the noise; like diseases that are treated superficially and foolishly, they just withdraw and after a short interval break out again all the more terribly; and gather inside us and are life, are life that is unlived, rejected, lost, life that we can die of.
“come back
believer in shade
believer in silence and elegance
believer in ferns
believer in patience
believer in the rain”― W.S. Merwin
It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.
To take a photograph is to align the head, the eye and the heart. It’s a way of life.
Ha! to forget. How childish! I feel you in my bones. Your silence screams in my ears. You may nail your mouth shut, you may cut out your tongue, can you keep yourself from existing? Will you stop your thoughts.
You say that you love rain, but you open your umbrella when it rains. You say that you love the sun, but you find a shadow spot when the sun shines. You say that you love the wind, but you close your windows when wind blows. This is why I am afraid, you say that you love me too.
And now that you don’t have to be perfect, you can be good.
There is neither happiness nor unhappiness in this world; there is only the comparison of one state with another. Only a man who has felt ultimate despair is capable of feeling ultimate bliss. It is necessary to have wished for death in order to know how good it is to live…..the sum of all human wisdom will be contained in these two words: Wait and Hope.
“Bee Brady makes photographs to share secrets. Using contemplative self portraiture and melancholy landscapes she tells a story both dark and beautiful, sad and redemptive. Bee is based in London and the deepest darkest county and is torn between the two.”

I like people too much or not at all. I’ve got to go down deep, to fall into people, to really know them.
This is so beautiful, makes me want to cry.
