There are at least two Tiffany Cole's in this world. One is a death row inmate in Florida, convicted of a double homicide, and the other makes the most beautiful box constructions. They both seem to have their moods.
Top 10 Lessons Photography has Taught Me About the World (Part 1)
1. Only a very, very good picture is worth a thousand words.2. Every person has a great story to tell.
3. People who live out their wildest dreams are labeled eccentric, but they are most comfortable with themselves, and therefore always a good portrait subject.
4. The best photographers agonize over their work. The bad ones are always satisfied.
5. A reality show about a photographer would be far more enlightening than The Surreal Life.
Top 10 Lessons Photography has Taught Me About the World (Part 2)
6. Ninety-nine percent of people are trustworthy-you can forget your camera bag, and they'll make sure you get it back.
7. Everyone has a close relative who is "really good" at photography.
8. People everywhere have the same dream-financial security,a better life for their children, and respect from others. What makes people different is the methods they use to realize the dream.
9. If you are a nosy person, you can use your camera to enter the lives (and homes) of interesting people.

A Dream Deferred
What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore--
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?
