2 Nephi 1:13
O that ye would awake; awake from a deep sleep, yea, even from the sleep of hell, and shake off the awful chains by which ye are bound, which are the chains which bind the children of men, that they are carried away captive down to the gulf of misery and woe.

I'm having a hard time figuring out where to start for this post. I began the concept for this image weeks ago. I shot it last weekend. And then my world became hollow when I learned of some devastating news from someone very special to me. As I worked on this image all I could think about was this person.
I've been sitting here for the past hour trying to figure out what it is that I want to say. But I don't want to say it because I don't want this image to be associated with what this person has gone through, this specific thing. I want this image to stand on its own. I want it to be the message of hope that I had originally planned. I want people to look at it and know that there is always a way to cut the chains that bind you to the thing that is playing your puppet master. And, so, I think I will leave it at that.
