Just because someone gives you a very complex answer to a deep question doesn’t mean it’s the right answer. Sometimes we look elsewhere for answers, sometimes navigating through our own hearts can be hard and troublesome.

You’ve asked all the right questions

But have you received the right answers?

You may think someone who seems authoritative  and very knowledgeable has provided the right information, But think about it, it might not be the case
 
Sometimes the only way to solve a problem is solving it through simplicity…. Ask yourself.
 
Most the time the answer is obvious, so don’t go looking for something complicated to solve your problem...

A canoe is designed to flow with the current almost as if it was a part of the water. If you go where the water takes you, you can enjoy a harmonious and pleasant journey. And if you wish to visit a place where the water does not seem to willingly go, you can still do so peacefully. It all comes down to knowing how to use the current to your advantage, you flow with it when it heads in your chosen direction, and you figure out a different strategy when it does not.

food for thought maybe?

When you don't feel well, you may quickly run to the computer and do a search of the symptoms. you might panic and assume you have a terrible illness. Or you might think you know what you have or what you're dealing with and will rush out and look for meds/remedies. But its really not the best way to deal with it is it? A simple visit with the doctor could alleviate your problem quickly. 

Some times when you're dealing with an emotional issue of some sort you are probably self-diagnosing when it would be so much more enlightening to have a heart-to -heart with a close friend. 

yeah? :)

There are three sides to every story; His, hers and the truth... you may have heard some rumor or gossip that you take to heart and it may contain some volatile or upsetting information. But there is undoubtedly more to the story...

Loyal men, Honest men, don't get enough credit...

Talking about the past here for a min...being with a guy for years, a guy you thought would be your "ever after" A guy that at one point felt like home.. coming to a crossroads and having to make a life changing hard decision to cut him off/ calling it off for good!  Only to realize a couple of years later how badly he’s treating the new girl behind her back, it too... is painful, you kind of start reflecting on your relationship with the guy…
"oh gosh, was he that bad with me? behind my back too"? He’s a tricky one, he sure did trick me for a few years… I feel so bad for her, as do many others…(Information that has recently come to my attention/ and in numbers... Eeek:/ ). I guess ignorance is her form of bliss maybe? I don’t know, there are so many things that I shut my mouth about this guy, tampering what others think of someone you too love is a hard thing to talk about… it should be between you and that person your with end of story. So naturally it was hard when he would throw a pity party and tell things to people about me that were not even true so he could get sympathy after a fight we had? (buying me flowers didnt fix problems, did he think they were..." A fix all magical flowers"?...And then I was a ungrateful brat for still wanting to work through the problems???..flowers are not for fixing problems or making them disapper, talking it over is... flowers after talking would be a sweet touch, just sayin! :)  (((that was a hard thing to deal with… very hard for me.)))  Its hard sometimes to glance over and see the same things happening, very heart breaking, You just kind of stop wanting to know and the better thing the healthy thing is really all together letting it go, its no longer your concern (youre free) …although "letting go"  in all reality isn't as easy as it sounds, It's a process of time, effort and patience with out rush, But that moment will come when your honestly ready, and in that moment you feel peace. It takes a strong person to break habits, a strong person to really go through with making a better change... but it is possible, possible when the gospel is present in your life... One that I waited to see in him, But never came,  It was more like an ongoing pattern…You see, some learn the hard way…that you can never change another, change comes from within, No matter how much you love them, sometimes you Have to leave to stir things up in their life BIG enough that a change will happen... crossing your fingers that this big change will be won over by the good and not the bad... unfortunately its looks like a standstill and really mouth dropping how bad things can be behind someone’s back ( and a back Supposedly you love???) ...sad but feeling like I made the right decision 110 percent... it’s like a bitter sweet Lucky type feeling… grateful! followed my gut... hard hard hard, but as time has passed, feelings /emotions have become crystal clear... I wasn’t the one who needed to get help I was the one who needed to leave so that he could realize he does. Just so sad he still doesn’t see the big picture and even more sad to see a relationship filled with so much dishonesty. No one deserves that… no one… I don’t believe in bad people, just people who are lost… and some stay lost..

Loyal men, Honest men, don't get enough credit...(lucky for me, my following relationship was healthy, Bright, loving and honest very honest, made all the difference! I will always love and adore him for helping me heal, I was so happy real happy with him, a happy I dont think was ever felt before... things didn’t work with him cause of stages of life, and thats ok..respect and love still exist there! very grateful for him! probably more than he will ever know! )

Sometimes even the red flags are waving right in front of your face, But you close your eyes cause you just want it to disappear or go away…


So Live with your eyes Shut or Open, you decide!  

I choose open! :)

know what you deserve... 

                                                         

          An archaeologist can tell a lot about a civilization from hundreds of years ago by digging up artifacts that were used by the people of that time period. Digging through layer after layer of earth to uncover pottery, jewelry, food and more. If you want to figure out why a certain person and or people are acting in an unpredictable or unsettling way,  you might have to work like an archaeologist to uncover the truth. It will take time and work but you can figure it out. It will be worth the betterment of that relationship... we all have a beginning to every problem, we all have those roots, they don't start from no where. Understanding ourselves, our friends and the people we love is key.

new camera time....

 Cant wait to get my hands on you....

Photography 

My passion. My Happy. My art. 

Capturing Moments and being able to Keep them. 

Creating magic with photos, when words don't give justice to emotion....but a photo does...is one of my favorite feelings. connecting once again with the past, the good and the bad. I love when my photos reflect true/raw emotion, when the soul can be felt, be seen. So powerful. I feel as if I view the world so differently from most, I see things in different light, different angles, different layers... its a blessing that I count twice!
