Sam

Some shots from a quick 20 minute studio shoot with this glorious person.

I often get this painful longing to live 10,000 lifetimes, and then the insight quickly follows that I actually have access to far more than even that.

Through the ethers it seems at times, downloads of dream and daydream, thoughts and sensations. And through connections with others. I love the lifetime that Sam is living, and that I have a point of connection to her and her expression.

“VICARIOUS. experienced in the imagination through the feelings or actions of another person.”

Vicarious is a beautiful thing I believe, when a life is lived in its own fullness and then informed through vicarious living of other kindreds or even those with whom we feel great disparities.

Our ways of being all inform each other and add to the expanse of collective consciousness in ways that are mysterious and often vague, but nonetheless integral to being human. This thought informs me daily, knowing that my smile or my tears may be the strongest line in the script of the day for anyone with whom I cross paths.

I wanna do it well, for you.

Because so many are doing it so well for me.
