How Can We Hope, After All, To

Larry Schwarm's Photographs Of Fire On The Prairie Are So Compelling That I Cannot Imagine Any Later Photographer Trying To Do Better. His Pictures Convince Us That Seemingly Far Away Events Are Close By, Relevant To Any Serious Person's Life.

Deep Down In Your Heart Know That All Is Well. Understand That The Universe Is Your Friend And Can Never Hurt You. It Is The Substratum Of All Existence Which Is Love! When You Develop A Loving Consciousness There Can Be No Problems. Love Takes Care Of Everything. Love Is The Same As Absolute Awareness, Pure Intelligence, Or The Power Of God. When You Have Enough Love Inside, There Are Truly No Problems. Problems Only Arise When You Believe You Are Separate And Lacking Love.

There's Something Within You That Knows What To Do. There Is A Power Greater Than You That Knows How To Take Care Of You Without Your Help. All You've Got To Do Is To Surrender To It. Surrender Your Thoughts, Your Mind, Your Ego, To The Current That Knows The Way. It Will Take Care Of You. It Will Take Better Care Of You Than You Can Ever Imagine.

Whatever Power There Is In The Urban Pictures Is Bound To The Closeness With Which They Skirt Banality. For A Shot To Be Good — Suggestive Of More Than Just What It Is — It Has To Come Perilously Near Being Bad, Just A View Of Stuff.
