Not many people find beauty in the abstract because it doesn’t make sense. Like this photo, for example. Right after I got my new camera I was experimenting with different shutter speeds at night time. This unique photo resulted from a long shutter speed while I was walking down the street in the dark.
I decided not to get rid of this photo because it drew me in. The different patterns and varying depth of light made for an interesting, abstract photo. It is beautiful in its own way, just not what you might expect from a camera like mine.
Just like people. We’re not all the same. God has created each of us a different way. Some of us might be more “abstract” – not what someone else would expect. Others live life in routine, the same thing day in and out. God’s master hand has created us all different so that the “collage of life” you might call it is interesting and diverse. How boring and unoriginal would it be to see a collage slapped together with the same photo in each slot?
