it's hard for me to see my progression. i've photographed concerts off & on for yrs w large gaps. always photographing though--nature, street, slice of life. it's difficult to see the progress while "in it." reminder to remember why i've started, why it's love, passion, need--a voice. #photographer

when ppl on the "good side of history" are dismissing those who are harmed, not just stating on a platform, but hurting ppl in their everyday lives, hurting ppl close to them, how do we actually change. hypocrisy keeps us down.

the way we treat ppl close to us& those in our community matters.

it's hard for ppl to believe the harm ppl commit. manipulative ppl sometimes hide behind "look at all the good i do," expecting it to erase current harmful patterns of behavior. there's a disconnect btwn their "good deeds"&their harm, especially while they're saying "but i'm a good person...look"1/2

i love "hurtful ppl hurt ppl" is making the rounds. it's predecessor "hurt ppl hurt ppl" continues the narrative that we must understand & forgive the abuser/enabler/etc & that ppl who are traumatized inherently cause trauma to others.
