I had to share this picture from 2009. I recently shared a post about fishing in the Mediterranean. This was taken on one of many visits to Tel Aviv. It was cooler weather for Israel, but he was waiting patiently.
A friend sent me a link to a moving song by Parson James from The Temple EP. It’s called ‘Waiting Game’, and this picture captures the spirit of that song. It starts like this:
I’ve been fishing and can’t catch a bite; I’ve been Praying, ain’t seen that light; I’ve been searching, high to the low; I’ve been working, working, working; myself to the bone.
I’m not a patient person. I am about to turn 60 this year, and I am still struggle with this. My skin does start to crawl sometimes! I’m learning, but would do well to remember the patience of the fisherman in this photo.
Prints are available for many of the photos on this site on canvas, metal or glass. They are stunning and you can purchase them for a wall at home.Click the link or the ‘prints and such’ tab.
