I am 37 yrs old today. Born 1984. At 27, I was on federal probation, working out of a garage attic with nothing but a hidden camera, yeti mic and an iMac loaded with Final cut 7. There was no staff, organization, or resources, I could not travel, and was forced to send cameras to others.
The mission in those circumstances was to expose people who wielded infinite power. I’ve learned and will continue to learn, that yes -- they have tremendous power. But that’s true, in part, because we gave it to them. We feel like we are nothing, but we are not alone. Through the highs and tremendous lows of life, I’ve begun to internalize the old adage; to not rejoice when you have found and not weep when you have lost. Or as Kipling wrote, “If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken, Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, and stoop and build ‘em up with worn-out tools.” 37 years -- Don’t they go by in a flash.
