2 things that never leave my camera bag…
“Dear Lord, the Great Healer, I kneel before you, since every perfect gift must come from you. I pray, give skill to my hands, clear vision to my mind, kindness and meekness to my heart. Give me singleness of purpose, strength to lift up a part of the burden of my suffering fellow men, and a realization of the privilege that is mine. Take from my heart all guile and worldliness, that with the simple faith of a child, I may rely on you. Amen.” -Mother Teresa (this is from the Missionaries of Charity prayer book- apparently the sisters pray this prayer before starting their days work…. so now I pray this prayer before I work).
“Audaces fortuna invat”- (Fortune favors the brave.) Found this quote from a book by Mirella Ricciardi “African Visions”- my female photography role model- she is why I want to sail around Africa.
