John Tesh

As I listened to Mary Krasn an independent writer for the Sherman Oaks Sun interview John Tesh about his syndicated radio program, I realized he's not the man I had stereotyped him to be. Funny how that works, when we pass judgment on someone we don't even know and then find out that we have something in common them. We then see them in a different light. We all have commonalities that run through our intertwined lives, imagine if we were to take the initiative to find them, what a different place our world would be.

John, a Christian and host of The John Tesh Radio Show, is not about inflicting his beliefs on others as I had preconceived. No, he simply wants to help make people's lives better and touch their hearts. I admire a person who has a strong belief in his faith, yet respects the beliefs of others. I believe a religion's purpose is to set an example of how to live our lives side by side with unity and mutual respect. As a practicing Buddhist for the last 22 years I have also learned the that there is no greater joy in life than touching the heart or making a difference in the life of another human being. When it comes our time to move on from this lifetime the only thing we get to take with us, is what we gave of ourselves. Touching just one person'’s heart can have a great affect on millions of people. You never know what the person you touched, might contribute to the world.

One of my favorite things about being a photographer
is the joy of encountering all types of people and the opportunity to move their lives through my images.
