Society and Human Rights: If You Must Start Anyhow, Start Well.


Introduction
'Start with the little you have,' that's what many of them say. So, 'You have an idea? A business idea? Or just any positive ambition that means so much to you? The key is starting small.
I and a fellow young man were discussing how funny and sometimes annoying it can be to hear those words from people who think they are encouraging us.
He wants to be a photographer. In this age where amazing cameras and expensive devices are out to improve the quality of photographic products, 'where do I start small?' He apparently needed some relevant experiences, 'How do I get experienced, when skilled personnels are asking me to pay because they didn't acquire their wealth of experience and expertise without a cost?' Yet, they say, 'start small!' I think it's easier said though. 

The Talk
Out of my personal experience, I've been discouraged many times. I love men's fashion so well. I finllally found a place to learn something relevant at a relatively low cost, I sacrificed time and comfort as necessary. Ever since I learned, I have been finding a way to get a machine with which I can practicalize my ideas. 
However, photography is a minor interest of mine. When I thought that the goal is not to make money -for now, and I wasn't expecting to earn a living with it, I tried to explore as best I could. 
Note: usually, when you start very 'small', I believe the drive should not be to make money otherwise you can get frustrated and discouraged easily. Try to do it sideways instead. I started blogging in 2014, but I got tired on the way. It was not about getting a good and quality content to share with potential readers. The problem was the number of views and comments. Just like many first-time bloggers, 'views and comments' were the only things that could motivate me to continue. Sadly, I quit the blog. As a writer, I have written short stories, novels, plays and so on without the money to publish. I even fell sick and stopped writing at some point. Then, ideas began to flood my mind again and I continued my obsessive writing. At that point, I reconstructed my mind and decided to blog for the passion, and here I am, offering you quality contents, right? Yes. The first picture on this post was shot and edited by me.

Conclusion

Moment De Gloire:
And on that day,
I saw the stars hold hands.
What were they celebrating?
Unto who was such honour?
But it was simple.
A great glory was...
Emerging out of time.
Sacred hour glory's born.

I'm a lover of art and nature enthusiast. I shot the first picture for the joy of it. Maybe you could start small with the things that matter to you, too.  If you will start small, seek pieces of advice, and start well. The way you start matters a lot.
