Persistence is the futility of knowledge when it comes to the trials and tribulations of photography! If it’s just grabbing your camera and snapping some photos or organizing a photo shoot, the more time you devote to the craft of photography, the more rewarding it can be. To challenge oneself while acquiring a new skill set, will lead to a self gratifying road of bliss. The more you read about a craft, a hobby or what have you, the more you feel self fulfilled with endurance to strive to obtain a knew mentality of knowledge in your craft. Every time I learned a new skill, it fuelled the fire of my desire to long for more and more knowledge. The temptation of knowledge began or becomes an obsession with every result achieved, while you apply your knew skill and put it to the test of performance.
The more persistent I became, the more joy I felt within my spirit and within my vast awareness of self. To gain self confidence from a hobby, that then turned into an outrageous fire of a desired future I hold so dear to my heart. Everything that I have achieved in my photography journey has stemmed from the blossoms of a persistent truth seeking enlightening spark. Persistence guided me through the darkness, into the land of hope, dreams and self love! Do I post thousands of posts on social media to feel the sense of acknowledgment, not one bit! Rather the point of it all is so I can demonstrate my journey to the lost and forgotten minds, that so happen to stumble on my content. I hope that someone can feel the persistence blossoming from my humbling mind, to one day feed someone’s fire and fulfill someone’s cup of desire.
Before I expire, before my journey comes to an end, let thy persistence be your light in the dark towards your promise land! Whatever you so choose to get you out of that dark tunnel you call home/reality, let persistence shine within so you too can overpower any demonized fears you have. Welcome to the land of prosperity, while your persistence helps you persevere through hell or high water! Just believe in yourself like every religious person believes in God!
Let persistence live within you and let persistence be your light!
Sincerely: Jon Paul Kersey
