      <image:title>Reflections - The Solitude of Edward Hopper - New York Movie (1939)</image:title>
      <image:caption>A near-empty movie theatre with a few patrons and a contemplative usherette lost in her own thoughts. The lighting is rich and sophisticated, highlighting the suggestion of female isolation. She’s not really watching the film. She is in her own story.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - The Solitude of Edward Hopper - The House by the Railroad (1925)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Alfred Hitchcock acknowledged the influence of Hopper’s 1925 painting in his creation of the Bates house in his 1960 film Psycho. Ominous in its normalcy, Hitchcock clearly picked up on its presence as a representation of something not quite right despite having all the pieces.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - The Solitude of Edward Hopper - Room in New York (1932)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hopper captures urban loneliness here. Two people in the same room but in different worlds, where perhaps a lack of communication or intimacy has created a sense of intentional withdrawal into the inanimate: the newspaper and the piano.</image:caption>
    </image:image>

      <image:title>Reflections - The Solitude of Edward Hopper - Automat (1927)</image:title>
      <image:caption>As is often the case in Hopper’s paintings, both the woman’s circumstances and her mood are ambiguous. She sits alone, one glove off, gazing at her coffee as if it were the last thing in the world she could make sense of. Hopper’s wife, Josephine, served as the model.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - The Solitude of Edward Hopper - Nighthawks (1942)</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hopper’s most famous work. In response to a query about loneliness and emptiness in the painting, he said he “didn’t see it as particularly lonely.” Then added: “Unconsciously, probably, I was painting the loneliness of a large city.” Most of us I suspect recognise this view at certain times of our life.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Reflections from the photographer: “This type of woodland is quite tricky to photograph, as it is so busy, and generally needs mist or thick fog to do it justice. I didn’t have those conditions [but] just as I was about to start the long trek back to the car, the sun came out and lit up this scene.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Reflections from the photographer: “Ever since I first traveled to Sápmi, I’ve felt deeply connected to its landscapes and culture. It has become my part-time home—a place of incredible beauty but also of fragility, facing threats from climate change and exploitation. Through this project, I hope to share its unique diversity and invite others to reconnect with nature and the values it carries.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 1. Good physical and mental health</image:title>
      <image:caption>We often treat health as something we notice only when it goes wrong. As the saying goes, “You can have a thousand problems… until you have a serious health problem. Then you only have one.” I faced this myself two years ago almost to the day when I was told I needed open-heart surgery to replace a damaged heart valve. If Jung is right, and happiness requires certain baseline conditions, then good health is one of them. The Harvard Study of Adult Development, now in its 80th year, identified four major predictors of wellbeing in later life: don’t smoke excessively, drink moderately (if at all), maintain a healthy weight, and stay physically active. Pretty unremarkable advice until you realise how few people follow it consistently. Mental health may matter even more. A 2013 study comparing Britons, Germans, and Australians found that poor mental health was two to six times more predictive of misery than poor physical health. That’s a big margin. In other words, good health doesn’t necessarily create happiness. But poor health, especially mental, reliably erodes it. We often think of happiness and unhappiness as opposites. But research suggests they’re not. They operate independently. Which means a good life is just as dependent on managing the lows as chasing the highs. Protecting the floor beneath us. Good health may not guarantee happiness. But it gives us our best shot at staying upright when life throws its inevitable punches.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 2. Good personal and intimate relations, such as those of marriage, the family, and friendships</image:title>
      <image:caption>“Good relationships keep us healthier and happier. Period.” That’s how Robert Waldinger, director of the Harvard Study of Adult Development, summarises eight decades of research. And the data backs him up: rich, stable connections with family, partners, and close friends are among the strongest predictors of long-term wellbeing. The benefits aren’t just emotional. Healthy interactions reduce stress, sharpen memory, and boost cognitive performance. Taking part in meaningful conversations, exchanging ideas, and participating in group activities keeps the brain alive and engaged. But we’re living through what some call a loneliness epidemic. Others dispute the term, pointing instead to rising solitude. The two are not the same. You can feel lonely in a crowded room and perfectly at peace alone in the woods. Loneliness is less about proximity and more about resonance—feeling understood, valued, and cared for. That kind of connection doesn’t happen by default. It requires depth, reciprocity, and intentionality. Modern life doesn’t make it easy. Urbanisation, remote work, individualism, and the ever-expanding presence of digital devices have reshaped how we live the minutiae of our lives. The algorithms of social media are winning at the moment. In every public place, everyone’s staring at a screen. But there is no algorithm for intimacy.    We have to choose it. Jung did. He was married to his wife, Emma, for 52 years, until her death at 73. In his work and life, he understood that the psyche doesn’t thrive in isolation. It’s shaped and steadied by those we hold close.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 3. The faculty for perceiving beauty in art and nature</image:title>
      <image:caption>A few years ago, while camping in the Arabian desert, I took several steps beyond my tent, up and over a nearby sand dune. It was pitch black. Midnight. Absolutely silent. When I looked up, the sky was a blanket of stars. Even if I’d had my camera, only my eyes could have done it justice. This is the kind of beauty Jung meant. Research shows that engaging with the natural world increases wellbeing. People feel more grounded, more connected to nature. It transcends culture or geography. It’s universal. Beauty reminds us of our smallness. That we are a speck on a speck. And that’s a good thing. Self-preoccupation often makes us anxious. There’s a fine line between healthy self-respect and compulsive self-performance. The modern obsession with self-congratulation and the quest to be noticed, to make ourselves bigger, often backfires. The downside of success is that it can magnify our insecurities. But awe shrinks the ego. Nature, art, music, books, they all pull us outside of ourselves. And in that smallness, we often find peace and perspective. We are tiny. Cosmically irrelevant. But loved by a handful of other tiny people. And that’s enough.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 4. Reasonable standards of living and satisfactory work</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’ve never been convinced by the phrase “Do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.” If only it was that simple. Most people don’t get that luxury, but most still want to feel their work means something, and that their efforts give them enough to live without constant financial anxiety. Decades of research show that few things impact wellbeing faster than unemployment or never-ending financial stress. Jung, interestingly, downplayed work’s role. His word was “satisfactory”—a fairly muted benchmark. But work has changed in the sixty years since his death. As I’ve written before, work has become the cornerstone of identity for many people. Career has taken on the weight once reserved for religion or community. We don’t just do our jobs. We are them. Two themes consistently make work feel purposeful: earned success—the sense of accomplishing something valuable—and service to others, which can be found in almost any role. The relationship between money and happiness remains contentious. But a few things are clear. It’s better to have money than not have it—at least to cover basic needs and reduce daily stress. Beyond that, accumulating more possessions rarely makes us happier. Instead, we can be happier by using money to buy time, create freedom, and share experiences with the people we care about. It’s also worth remembering that the typical person gets about 4,000 weeks of life. Of that, only around 3,000 are waking and conscious. And work makes up just one-sixth of that time. So yes, work matters. And ideally, it’s purposeful. But it’s not everything. Perhaps that’s what Jung was getting at.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 5. A philosophic or religious point of view capable of coping successfully with the vicissitudes of life.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Jung, the son of a pastor, was deeply Christian in his worldview. But he didn’t insist religion was the only path. What he did believe was that everyone needs some kind of framework—something larger than themselves—to make sense of life, especially when it falls apart. I’ve never belonged to a particular religion. But I’ve visited many churches, mosques, temples, and sacred sites around the world. I’ve always found them architecturally impressive as well as peaceful and reflective. They offer a kind of sanctuary. A place to retreat from whatever challenges someone may be facing; a return to something older and deeper. Research shows that both religious belief and spirituality are linked to better mental health. But secular philosophies can serve the same role. Stoicism for example is an ancient system built on discipline and perseverance. Its four virtues—Courage, Temperance, Justice, and Wisdom—offer a structure for living meaningfully, especially in difficult times. Whatever the system, the point is the same: life is unpredictable. It will bend us. Sometimes it will break us. What matters is whether we have a view of the world that can help us hold the ship steady—and begin again when the waters settle.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 1. The Existential</image:title>
      <image:caption>Fear of oblivion and irrelevance It’s not death that terrifies most of us. It’s becoming invisible. Being passed over. Politely ignored in a meeting or quietly removed from a WhatsApp group. We fear irrelevance. Today’s drive for purpose is just a modern name for an ancient hunger: to be something. You see it in retired athletes, who go from standing ovations to empty calendars. In aging parents whose grown children stop asking for advice. In artists and writers terrified that their last good idea is the final one on an empty conveyor belt. To combat this fear, we reinvent ourselves. New wardrobes. New jobs. New goals. But this reinvention has a lingering shadow. It tricks us into thinking this version of us is the final cut. Psychologists call this “the end of history illusion”—the false belief that who we are now is who we’ll always be. We massively underestimate our capacity for more change. It's a comforting delusion. The reality is change is always happening within and around us. Which means any obsession with leaving a legacy or impact is built on quicksand. Who we are and who we’ll be remembered as are often two separate things. We don’t get to choose the second. Just ask George Orwell who wanted to be remembered as a novelist. Instead, he’s remembered as a prophet, his name a warning—Orwellian—not a signature. We can fend off this existential fear of irrelevance by making it less about something to achieve and more about something to offer. Giving someone a few minutes of your time will always matter more than you think. Relevance is in the moment.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 2. The Personal</image:title>
      <image:caption>Fear of exposure and being unlovable This is where shame lives. It’s the fear behind social anxiety, performance pressure, or being found out. One of the best screen performances of personal fear is Robert De Niro as heavyweight boxing champion Jake La Motta in Raging Bull. La Motta’s entire persona—violent, jealous, competitive, sexually paranoid—is armour. He’s a man who can take brutal beatings in the ring but emotionally is as fragile as the wings of a butterfly. Pain for La Motta is weakness, and nothing is more painful than being seen. As soft, needy, human. The tragedy isn’t that Jake LaMotta is unloved; it’s that he makes himself unlovable trying to prove that he matters. The harder he fights to prove he’s worthy, the more he confirms his own unworthiness. It’s a cruel paradox. And unfortunately, not a rare one. Our fear of being unlovable is really a fear of being ordinary. We don’t want to be seen as average. To be average is to be invisible. We’ve got comfortable with the idea that average people aren’t worthy of devotion. Love must be earned through achievement, brilliance, or uniqueness. Take a look at any popular social media profile and you’ll see every effort against being seen as average. This is why exposure feels so dangerous: it threatens to reveal we’re not special. The way out isn’t through constant self-improvement. It’s self-acceptance. The unconditional kind. I’m reminded of a fine scene in Good Will Hunting when Robin Williams’ character, Sean, speaks to Will, the troubled young genius: “You’re not perfect, sport, and let me save you the suspense: this girl you’ve met, she’s not perfect either. But the question is whether or not you’re perfect for each other.” It’s a great line because Will fears exactly this: that if someone truly sees him, they’ll walk away. It’s made all the more poignant by who’s saying it. Robin Williams seemed like a man universally loved and yet was battling his own private darkness.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 3. The Cultural</image:title>
      <image:caption>Fear of erosion: values, norms, identity, memory In the early 1960s, writer Philip Roth observed, “You can’t write good satirical fiction because reality will quickly outdo anything you might invent.” This fear isn’t about death or rejection, but about disintegration. The slow collapse of the stories, norms, and shared values that once made the world feel coherent. The monsters are no longer supernatural or confined to comic books or horror flicks. They’re present in our world of the real: climate collapse, AI dread, the death of democracy, nuclear weapons, health pandemics. These all play into our fear that something essential is slipping away. Not just safety or certainty but meaning itself. The fear of losing our values, identity, and even decency. Conspiracy theories suck people into black holes, perhaps never to return. With millions of social media accounts and thousands of podcasts to choose from, “journalists can’t even establish what’s true, let alone what people should think about what’s true,” as the journalist and author George Packer wrote this week. We are more sceptical and cynical than ever before. Or at least it feels like that.   This cultural fear is both individual and collective. It’s what shapes the tone of conversations in coffee shops. It pulls on our sense of identity like a backpack filled with bricks. And it’s hard to put down. It’s also the fear that might get you into the most trouble. It’s all around us, like a fog that’s blown in from an otherworldly place. How do we escape the fog? It’s hard to escape fog. We just slow down, switch on our fog lights so we can see better, and turn off the music so we have all our senses. And try not to run anyone over.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 1. Don’t Trust Your First Instinct</image:title>
      <image:caption>Solve this problem. A bat and a ball cost $1.10. The bat costs one dollar more than the ball. How much does the ball cost? … … Did you get the right answer? The ball costs 5 cents. The bat doesn’t cost a dollar, it costs $1.05. When asked this question, more than 50% of students at Harvard, MIT, and Princeton, gave the intuitive—and incorrect—answer: 10 cents. This reflects what Kahneman calls the ‘Lazy Controller,’ our tendency to follow the law of least effort. It’s a moderately difficult problem, but solvable with just a few seconds of deliberate thought. This is one of the key themes of Thinking Fast and Slow: we are often overconfident and place too much faith in our intuitions. Intuition serves us well and has its place. It’s been honed by evolution; a quick response to a threat improved our chances of survival. But when there are several ways of achieving the same goal, we tend to choose the least demanding one. The Lazy Controller at work. “In the economy of action, effort is a cost, and the acquisition of skill is driven by the balance of benefits and costs. Laziness is built deep into our nature.” Those who got the bat-and-ball example right could be called ‘engaged.’ “They are more alert, more intellectually active, less willing to be satisfied with superficially attractive answers, more sceptical about their intuitions.” What this might teach us: Slow down. Be cautious of placing too much trust in your intuitions when problem-solving. We’re wired to favour fast thinking as it takes less energy. But making better decisions means learning to activate our slower, more deliberate reasoning system.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 2. Loss Hurts More Than Gain</image:title>
      <image:caption>You may be familiar with Kahneman’s theory of loss aversion. His research reveals that for the average person the pain of losing is roughly twice as powerful as the pleasure of gaining. If you accidentally dropped $100 on the street, the sting of that loss would be twice as sharp as the pleasure of winning the same amount in the lottery. This simple imbalance has far-reaching consequences. “Loss aversion is a powerful conservative force that favours minimal changes from the status quo.” In our daily lives, we are usually more willing to take risks to avoid a loss than to make a gain. We often favour the status quo because it feels ‘safer’, even though it might not be. Where in your life do you consistently default to the safer option? What this might teach us: Loss aversion is a bias, not a truth. Being aware of it can help you take smarter risks to gain something meaningful. It could mean a new job, a different relationship, or even a move to a new city.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 3. Overcome the Sunk-Cost Fallacy</image:title>
      <image:caption>Another one you might already know. The sunk-cost fallacy describes our reluctance to abandon a course of action simply because we’ve already invested heavily in it. The sunk cost could be time, money, or effort. In poker terms, it’s being “pot committed”—we are playing this hand to the bitter end, no matter the outcome. Been there a few times… The sunk-cost fallacy is a thinking error that distorts how we interpret information and influences our decision-making. The challenge is we keep contributing to these sunk costs even though we know it isn’t working for us. An example is a financial savings product where we keep making monthly contributions despite the high fees and poor returns. It’s easier for us to justify pouring more money into it than to admit it was a failure. It’s called a fallacy for a reason. It’s based on flawed logic. You’ll see it in relationships, careers, even books you’re reading. “Well, I’ve come this far, I might as well finish it,” even if you’re not enjoying it and could be reading something far more worthwhile instead (in a world where you can only read a fraction of all the books ever written.) I’ve been there too… “The sunk-cost fallacy keeps people for too long in poor jobs and unhappy marriages.” What this might teach us: Identify where you might be falling into the sunk-cost trap. Something, someone, or somewhere you’ve invested heavily, but know deep down it isn’t working. Then ask a simple yet powerful question to help you make a more rational choice: ‘What advice would I give to a friend in my situation?’</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 5. Familiar Isn’t Fact</image:title>
      <image:caption>Availability bias is a mental shortcut that relies on the most immediate examples that come to mind when we evaluate a topic, decision, or situation. It’s the idea that if something can be recalled easily, it must be important, or at least more important than alternatives that don’t come to mind as readily. Authoritarian regimes have long exploited this principle. “A reliable way to make people believe in falsehoods is frequent repetition because familiarity is not easily distinguished from truth.” Joseph Goebbels, chief propagandist for the Nazi Party, was a master of this tactic, flooding all communication channels across Germany with repeated falsehoods until they became accepted truths. But availability bias isn’t limited to dark chapters in history. In everyday settings, business leaders often base decisions on the most recent or memorable information they’ve heard, rather than on a full assessment of the facts. To counter this, Kahneman suggests a deceptively simple tool: something I call The Written Paragraph. The rule: Before an important issue is discussed, every team member writes a short summary of their position. This captures a broader range of perspectives before the group conversation begins. In most meetings, those who speak early and assertively tend to dominate the discussion, and others fall in line. The Written Paragraph puts all views on the table from the start, leading to a much richer conversation and direction. How many organisations follow this approach? I suspect not many, especially when speed and urgency tend to override depth and deliberation. What this might teach us: Awareness of availability bias means slowing down and asking whether the option that came to mind first is actually the best or just the one we’ve heard most. That’s a subtle distinction, but a vital one.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - This week’s cover image is a photo I took in 2013 at the S-21 prison in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Once a high school, it was taken over by Pol Pot’s security forces in 1975 and turned into the largest centre of detention and torture in the country. When Phnom Penh was liberated in 1979, only seven prisoners were found alive. Here, in brick and concrete, was Milton’s vision made real.</image:title>

      <image:caption>The official Panini sticker album of the 1985 classic film. A fully completed album of 180 stickers—except for one. The sticker space for No.127 has remained blank for the better part of 40 years. An early metaphorical lesson for life perhaps. Do we all complete our albums? Unlikely. Be happy with what we have. And it’s still a great film.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 2. A Short Story I Wrote When I Was Ten</image:title>
      <image:caption>Back in 1986, the literary world was given a gift. Sadly, it wasn’t my first short story effort, The Time Machine. Preserved by my mum somehow, it was revisionist history at its best. In the story, I invented a time machine and travelled back to 1492, landing on Columbus’ ship to help him discover America. An early example of a child’s instinct to leave a mark. In this case, I actually discovered America, not Columbus. One to keep in mind for my American readers celebrating the Fourth of July holiday today.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 3. Roy of the Rovers—My First and Last Edition</image:title>
      <image:caption>I bought my first issue of popular UK football comic, Roy of the Rovers, in July 1986 from a petrol station in the south of England (channeling my Marilu Henner there). I was drawn to the carnage on its front page: the fictional team, Melchester Rovers, had been involved in a bus wreckage, mirroring the real-life tragedy of the Munich air disaster involving Manchester United 18 years earlier. Roy survived. His will to continue inspired by the loss of those around him. And I kept reading every week until the final edition of the comic in 1993 when Roy Race finally hung up his boots. (Many years ago, I threw out the hundreds of issues I’d collected over the years, keeping only the first and last.)</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 4. Emails From September 11, 2001</image:title>
      <image:caption>I was 25 and working for a financial services company on September 11, 2001—my first job, my first company. As that dark day unfolded, I began a series of back-and-forth emails with friends as the realisation of what was happening played out in real time. The urge to record, even amid the chaos. I saved all the emails in a folder, and a few years later, when I left the company, I printed them and placed them in an A4 folder, where they remain to this day. A live record of the most consequential day of the 21st century so far. For posterity.</image:caption>

The tower remains visible across most districts of Berlin.</image:title>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Woke Up This Morning - Issue 34, October 13, 2023</image:title>
      <image:caption>In this issue, we looked at how the world presents us with lessons, particularly through literature and television. I explored key concepts from one of the best books ever recommended to me: Difficult Conversations: How To Discuss What Matters Most. It’s a convincing read that distills fifteen years of research into practical strategies for managing the conversations we tend to avoid. This one belongs in your library I also reflected on one of the greatest television shows of all time—The Sopranos. In contrast to Difficult Conversations, one of the show’s central themes is resistance to change. By recognising Tony Soprano’s pitfalls, we can better steer our journeys and see new opportunities. Better perhaps to wake up curious than certain. Read Woke Up This Morning.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Big Ideas - Issue 37, November 3, 2023</image:title>
      <image:caption>For our second revisit, we explored the nature of ideas—and how they’ve shaped our world in both structured and unpredictable ways. The past offers a deep well of insight. For every person alive today, fourteen have passed on. That’s a lot of collective experience to draw from—especially from those closest to us, like our parents. Under this framing, we looked at two very different works. Bill Bryson’s A Short History of Nearly Everything takes on the task of explaining the last 13.7 billion years in under 500 pages. And The Blair Witch Project, the innovative, genre-defining 1999 film, shot for just $60,000, reimagined the horror film and harnessed the early power of the internet. In our search for new ideas, we can stay humble, like the man on the cover. Read Big Ideas</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I took this photo in 2019, during a visit to Chernobyl—a rusting dodgem car in an abandoned playground. I later learned the playground was brand new, scheduled to open just one week after the nuclear disaster. This was one of six images I submitted this week for the Berlin Photo Awards 2025.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A crammed, claustrophobic hardware shop where every square inch overflows with parts, tools, and wires. Yet, at the centre, the owner sits quietly, reading. A contrast of order and disorder, speaking to our sometimes chaotic world and how we can still make sense of it by turning down the noise.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>At first glance, it looks like a galaxy—a constellation of light scattered across the void. But this isn’t the Milky Way. It’s Times Square, captured from above in exceptional detail. The super-wide aerial perspective transforms New York’s dense skyline into something celestial, blurring the line between city and universe. And just like stars, millions of lives orbit below, drawn toward the brightest lights—the centre.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 3. Gibbon Pedro Jarque Krebs. Shortlist. Natural World &amp; Wildlife Category.</image:title>
      <image:caption>With a quiet, contemplative gaze, this gibbon seems lost in thought, as if pondering the mysteries of the universe. Framed in shadow, its expression feels almost human—intelligent, focused, perhaps even wistful. Gibbons are social creatures, yet here, in solitude, we see something deeper: the capacity for curiosity and reflection.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Life in motion, but at different paces. Who’s arriving, who’s leaving, who’s simply waiting? The faces suggest weariness, wisdom, perhaps a touch of resignation. Journeys of life have been taken—that much is clear. A bus stop is usually a place of transition, a gateway to somewhere else. Yet here, it feels like a destination. No one seems to be going anywhere.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Best Book of 2024 The Right to Oblivion by Lowry Pressly.</image:title>
      <image:caption>A timely work in our age of digital. Writer and teacher Lowry Pressly reexamines privacy as not just a political right but as a key to a life worth living. Pressly argues that embracing ‘oblivion’ allows us to protect our humanity in a hyperconnected world, as well as rediscover the freedom of being temporarily forgotten, paving a new path to creativity, joy, and love. I believe this is a topic that will dominate the next decade.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Best Article of 2024 You Might Be a Late Bloomer by David Brooks. Brooks is one of my favourite writers, and in this Atlantic article from June, he explores the life secrets of those who flail early but thrive later in life. Brooks reveals how persistence, self-discovery, and evolving passions can lead to success. It’s a reminder that life’s timeline isn’t linear, and growth unfolds uniquely. We all have our own path.

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Best Film of 2024 American Fiction by Cord Jefferson.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Though technically a 2023 release, this sharp and brilliant satire on race, identity, and connection remains a standout in 2024. Oscar-nominee Jeffrey Wright is masterly as Monk Ellison, who exposes stereotypes in the publishing industry through his ironic book creation, My Pafology. Beyond its humour and critique, the film paints a broader canvas: exploring family, loneliness, bitterness, and the healing power of letting others in.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Best Documentary of 2024 Turning Point: The Bomb and The Cold War This 9-part series explores the pivotal events and decisions that shaped the nuclear age. We see the birth of the arms race, the resulting political tensions, and the human stories behind the Cold War. It’s both a reminder of how close we came to disaster and how the threat remains just as potent today. Annie Jacobsen’s Nuclear War: A Scenario is the perfect literary companion—just don’t expect to put it down.</image:title>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Best Quote of 2024 Jerry Seinfeld, Duke 2024 Commencement Address “What I need to tell you as a comedian: Do not lose your sense of humour. You can have no idea at this point in your life how much you are going to need it to get through. Not enough of life makes sense for you to be able to survive it without humour.”</image:title>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - One year ago yesterday, December 19, 2023, I underwent open-heart surgery to replace a defective heart valve. In the twelve months since, I’ve really focused on trying to be as present as possible, staying in the moment.  I’ve traveled to some of my favorite countries, like Thailand and Spain, qualified as a professional coach, spent quality time with friends and family, and continued to enjoy simple pleasures like reading, writing, films, and quiet walks. It’s been especially rewarding to help others find more clarity in their lives as a coach and to support those facing the difficult news of requiring heart surgery. One of my favourite quotes is by Charles Dickens: “No-one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.”  We all have that capacity, in whatever measure we can.</image:title>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Expression - Issue 29, September 8, 2023</image:title>
      <image:caption>In this edition, I explored the theme of art and its essential role in human expression and community. I reflected on the work of Mark Rothko, famous for his large-scale abstract paintings, which are celebrated for their bold, brilliant fusion of colours and psychological meaning. I also revisited The 400 Blows by François Truffaut, a key film of the French New Wave cinema, capturing the harsh realities of adolescence in a gritty 1950s Paris. That week’s reflection also touched on the role of AI in art. While AI can mimic human patterns and styles, it can never truly replicate the authentic human touch. This is a topic that will continue to remain relevant in our age of misinformation. The quote that week comes from George Bernard Shaw, and there’s an intriguing question for you to consider.

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Silence - Issue 36, October 27, 2023</image:title>
      <image:caption>In this edition, I focused on the vital role of independent thinking. I highlighted two works that emphasise its importance: George Orwell’s classic fable Animal Farm, perhaps the greatest artistic portrayal of the abuse of power, and the powerful film The Lives of Others, which explores surveillance and scandal in East Berlin in 1984. It’s a film that lingers long after watching. That week, I reflected on what it means to cultivate independent thinking and how we can apply this mindset more intentionally in our daily lives. The quote came from the great Russian writer and dissident Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, and the issue was inspired by my travels to Gori, Georgia—the birthplace of Joseph Stalin.

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - The Nature of Ambition - Issue 27, August 25, 2023</image:title>
      <image:caption>In this edition, I explored the dual-edged nature of ambition: how it drives us forward while reminding us of the need to take stock and celebrate our achievements, both big and small. I discussed one of my favourite books on ambition, The Perfect Mile by Neal Bascome, which captures the relentless pursuit of Roger Bannister to become the first person in history to break the 4-minute mile barrier. It’s a brilliantly told story. Staying with that theme, I also explored the Oscar-winning film Whiplash, about a brilliant young jazz drummer whose obsession with perfection drives him into a frenzy. In the reflection that week, I considered the fine line between healthy ambition and self-destruction. That week’s quote came from Salvador Dali, who knew a thing or two about talent and ambition.

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Experimenting - Issue 26, August 18, 2023</image:title>
      <image:caption>In this edition, I revisited the ever-relevant balance between work and leisure. Inspired by an article in The Atlantic by Simone Stolzoff, The Moral Case for Working Less, I explored the idea that true leisure isn’t simply about recharging to enhance productivity—it’s an end in itself, offering genuine wellbeing and value. I also analysed the Academy Award-winning documentary American Factory, which shines a fascinating light on the cultural complexities between Chinese and American workers coming together in a car factory. In that week’s reflection, I considered how the concept of ‘Productivity’ has evolved in our tech-driven world and introduced the idea of ‘slow productivity’—a more sustainable and thoughtful approach to work. There’s also a reflective question for you to consider. Read more from ‘Experimenting’.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Rebirth - Issue 19, June 30, 2023</image:title>
      <image:caption>For this special look back, it feels fitting to return to Spain, where I wrote Issue 19 last June. In that edition, titled Rebirth, I explored how travel can act as a powerful catalyst for renewal—a chance to reset, rediscover, and see the world with fresh, childlike wonder. In that reflection, I discussed Paulo Coelho’s The Pilgrimage, which chronicles his experiences along the Camino de Santiago, a spiritual path through northern Spain to Santiago de Compostela. I also touched on the six-part television series The Trip to Spain, which poignantly captures the lighter yet reflective side of travel. And that week’s quote came from Mark Twain, a constant source of wisdom. Read more from ‘Rebirth’.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - Whispers in The Grey - Issue 25, August 11</image:title>
      <image:caption>For the second revisit, I’ve selected an issue that remains as relevant as ever—understanding the many shades of grey in complex matters rather than settling for black-and-white positions. In that edition, I highlighted an excellent essay by journalist Amanda Ripley called Complicating the Narratives, Ripley urged reporters to approach complex issues differently, by revealing the full spectrum of perspectives, rather than framing them as binary, polarised debates. I also reflected on Christopher Nolan’s powerful and haunting biopic Oppenheimer, and contemplated the moral complexities surrounding the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945. Can a decision be both morally justifiable and ethically questionable? This remains a critical question, especially in times of difficult decisions. That week’s quote came from F. Scott Fitzgerald, and I posed an important question for reflection, one that may still resonate today. Read more from Whispers in the Grey.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 1. ‘Lincoln’ - Washington D.C., United States</image:title>
      <image:caption>Captured in July 2014 at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C. It was a hot and sticky summer day, which ended in thunderstorms and torrential rain. The turbulent weather that day is symbolic of the frenzied conditions leaders must navigate. In a challenging and complex world, Lincoln’s character, integrity, and wisdom remain more important than ever, even one hundred and fifty years after his death.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 2. ‘The Lost City of Petra’ - Petra, Jordan</image:title>
      <image:caption>Captured in April 2016, as we caught our first glimpse of the ancient city of Petra, nestled in Jordan. Founded over 2,000 years ago, Petra was ‘lost’ to the outside world for more than 500 years before being rediscovered by explorers. My mum and I shared this exploration, captivated by the same sense of discovery and awe as we made our way through the deep, winding canyon. Petra reflects the timeless human desire to explore and better understand our world.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 3. ‘The Waltz King’ - Vienna, Austria</image:title>
      <image:caption>Captured in November 2015 in Vienna’s Stadtpark, one of the city’s oldest and most important parks. I was on an early morning run when I came across this striking statue of the famous classical composer Johann Strauss, known as ‘The Waltz King.’ I went back to get my camera. The statue is a powerful reminder of the significant influence music and art have in our lives, and how cultural contributions transcend time, inspiring and uplifting us. (Listen to The Blue Danube Waltz).</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 5. ‘Two Boys in Palawan’ - Palawan, Philippines</image:title>
      <image:caption>Captured in July 2019 in the small fishing village of El Nido, Palawan, in the Philippines. El Nido is famous for its white-sand beaches and clear, luxurious waters. One evening at dusk, I took a walk and saw these two young boys combing the beach. In our increasingly digital and ‘artificial’ world, there remains a deep connection between human beings and their physical environment. Water, land, and life are intricately linked. They keep us uniquely grounded and human.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Captured in November, 2013, during my first photography adventure in Vietnam. This photo was taken whilst traveling along the Mekong Delta river—a vast labyrinth of rivers, swamps, and islands—in a small two-person boat. I remember it being a serene experience, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the natural landscape as well as the floating markets where local inhabitants traded goods and worked the land at their natural, unhurried pace.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Captured in November, 2015. This was just one of those lucky shots you get once in a while. I was walking down the steps of a Buddhist temple in Bangkok, instinctively turned around and took this single shot. What I love about this photo is how everyone is looking in a different direction, symbolically reflecting the different paths of life and the possibilities. One figure stands out—the young man at the back, staring straight ahead, his gaze focused and resolute.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 3. ‘Eruption’ - Iceland</image:title>
      <image:caption>Captured in September, 2019. Photography is often a game of patience and timing. This photo is such an example, capturing a geyser called Strokkur a half-second after its eruption, catapulting scalding water into the thunder grey sky. Stokkkur is found in a geothermal area in the southwestern part of Iceland and usually reaches a height of 15-20 metres. It’s a small reminder that nature is unstoppable and runs to its own agenda. Iceland is an incredible place to photograph—it’s like being at the end of the earth. I’d love to return.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Reflections - Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five - 5. ‘Abandoned’ - Chernobyl, Ukraine</image:title>
      <image:caption>Captured in May, 2021. This photograph captures a rusted and derelict dodgem car, serving as a poignant reminder of the devastating impact of human error. I took this photo during a trip to the abandoned town of Pripyat—the feeder town for the Chernobyl power plant, which faced a catastrophic meltdown in 1986. This was one of several photos from a children’s abandoned fairground in Pripyat. The fairground, normally a place of joy and excitement, is now an eerie graveyard of silence and phantom memories. Read more about my experience at Chernobyl as part of my Photo Stories.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Deep Life Reflections - Podcast - Deep Life Reflections: Podcast - Survival - Survival</image:title>
      <image:caption>Episode 80 This week's podcast of Deep Life Reflections explores survival through the lens of Eugene Sledge's memoir With The Old Breed, recounting the camaraderie and leadership that helped overcome the horrors of war, and the documentary Apollo 13: Survival, which highlights the resilience and ingenuity needed to face crises. We also reflect on how today’s societal fragmentation might challenge our ability to unite in overcoming such obstacles. Tune in below—it’s a quick listen, under ten minutes.</image:caption>
