I held and directed a photo session between my wife and I. The session was held as a celebration of our years together. It was a reflection on how allowing ourselves to love and be loved as deeply opened so many doors to self-reflection and acceptance, to vulnerability, and to a full surrender to vast trenches of the complexities of unconditional love.
However, that only came with constant relinquish to the unknown and the uncontrollable.
A constant challenge to what we know of "love".
A constant questioning of the root of our actions and emotional behavior. Of identity and the norms that rules our lives. Our choices.
Firstly, towards ourselves and then to those who we share this existence with.
Then comes the materialization of our redefined version of pure love.
Which doesn’t come by without a challenge but then it becomes bliss. Then the cycle repeats.
Endlessly making this lifetime very purposeful, because love is limitless.
Love is total madness.
It’s too vast for our human brains to even comprehend and for our language to even dare explain.
Our wish is for everyone to allow themselves to experience this with any dynamic we hold a safe space with. Our friends, our mother, our sisters, our brothers.
The communities we’re part of.
The communities we’re building but most importantly with ourselves.
A love bound to no human limitation.
