Taken five years ago, this photo remains one of the most significant I’ve ever captured. Those who followed me back then may or may not remember the story behind it, but I recall it vividly. Both my life and I have undergone profound transformation since that moment. It’s remarkable to reflect on how much growth and understanding time can bring. Life moves in an endless rhythm of highs and lows, and I’ve learned that when you approach it with sincerity and self-respect, the lows never cut quite as deep. I don’t claim to have a universal remedy for overcoming life’s low points, but through perseverance and hard work, I’ve found how to regain my own balance and keep moving forward when lows hit.
