The Weight of Steps
Hello dear Black and White community,
People come and go, and they never stop. Faces of worry, joy, uncertainty… each one is a world of their own. I like to photograph everything that moves, and this time I focused on the walk: slow, fast, the step of the elderly man, the one who is late for work or classes, or the one who simply stands still on a corner and looks at me. Click, I capture that gaze that says so much and yet nothing at all.
Sometimes it’s hard for me to write everything I want to express. These have been difficult days mentally. Living with disorders like bipolar, BPD, or ADHD is exhausting. It feels as if my mind is flying a thousand miles an hour, thought after thought, never stopping. And when it finally does stop, everything turns blank.
Then I observe. Like the man sitting and staring into the void. And I feel that maybe I should also stop, sit down, observe, and calm my mind. Leave behind the pain caused by those thoughts.
Today I don’t have much more to say, only this that came straight from my heart. Thank you, and good vibes.
Thanks for being part of this ongoing #MonoMadChallenge adventure!

El Peso de los Pasos
Hola querida comunidad en Blanco y Negro,
Las personas van y vienen, y nunca se detienen. Rostros de preocupación, de alegría, de incertidumbre… cada uno es un mundo. Me gusta fotografiar todo lo que se mueve, y esta vez me enfoqué en el andar: lento, rápido, el paso del señor mayor, el del que llega tarde al trabajo o a clases, o aquel que simplemente se queda parado en una esquina y me mira fijamente. Click, retrato esa mirada que dice mucho y a la vez nada.
A veces me cuesta redactar todo lo que quiero expresar. Han sido días difíciles mentalmente. Vivir con trastornos como la bipolaridad, el TLP o el TDAH agota. Es como si la mente volara a mil, sin detenerse, pensamientos tras pensamientos. Y cuando por fin se detiene, queda todo en blanco.
Entonces observo. Como el señor sentado mirando al vacío. Y siento que tal vez yo también debería parar, sentarme, observar y calmar mi mente. Dejar atrás el dolor que me causan esos pensamientos.
Hoy no tengo más que decir, solo esto que me salió del alma. Gracias, y buenas vibras.
Gracias por acompañarme en esta aventura continua del #MonoMadChallenge
