I think in this life one needs to find things that make you see why you are alive. This can be as simple as a beach holiday to putting a complex idea into practice. Once you know what you must do or experience, things become easier and better. 

As Roger Ballen said:

If an artist is one who spends his life trying to define his being, I guess I would have to call myself an artist.

Clutter or no clutter?

Sometimes it feels like my head is cluttered. Sometimes this is good and other times it is bad clutter. Sometimes you have the need to tidy up and other times you love living in a little bit of a mess. The key is though that everything needs to come together in the end as a whole to have meaning. Even if the meaning is the cluttered. I think...

This image above was taken at a psychiatric hospital in Gauteng, South Africa. It reminds me of the clutter I was referring to above. At the same time though it somehow makes me see a 'mentally unstable' person who must be experiencing more clutter in his/ her mind?! Or maybe quite the opposite? Maybe the 'sane' humans are the confused ones? How would you know?
