Dance

 

.....and sometimes you just have to dance 

to the music that's playing.....

Happy Weekend to you!

Balance

“It isn't what you have

or who you are 

or where you are 

or what you are doing 

that makes you 

happy or unhappy. 

It is what you think about it.”

-Dale Carnegie

Just a bit more of the inspiration

and motivation needed to get 

through the remainder of this week.

Balancing all the parts of our lives

isn't easy, and attitude is affected

(when we let it) when things are 

out of balance.  

Woman

"A woman is the full circle.  

Within her is the power to create, 

nurture, and transform."

— Diane Mariechild

Inspiration

"Don't let anyone rob you

of your imagination,

your creativity,

or your curiosity.

It's your place in the world;

it's your life.

Go on and do all you can with it,

and make it the life you want to live."

— Mae C. Jemison




introspection and inspiration go hand in hand....
its always good to look back, to look things over,
to ponder the when, where, and why's of life.
But in the long run, we all need to get back on
track and move forward.  And even though i
post these thoughts for myself, i have found in
the past that it can often relate to someone else ....

maybe you need a bit of inspiration today
--- i hope you find it!

Age is a number

"Aging is not 

'lost youth' 

but a new stage of 

opportunity and strength."

— Betty Friedan

lots of introspection lately,

some of it regarding age,

When it comes to aging,

i find myself looking in

the mirror, wondering

'When did i become old?'

i do things, think things,

same as i did 20 yrs ago,

and can hardly believe

this is my 55th year.

But aging doesn't mean an end...

it's just another phase

in this awesome thing

called Life.

Careful!

This was my fav

in the series

i think its the

lines that drew

me in.

and of course,

i love shooting in

black and white! 

And this is what happens

when a gal isn't too

careful when standing

on a chair! 

*chuckles*

no worries, i only

lost my balance,

(maybe a little pride! haha)

but no gals were hurt in

the shooting of this pic! 

Tights, b/w

Patterns

“Pay attention

to the intricate patterns

of your existence

that you take for granted.”

―Doug Dillon

 just a few more

from the same morning

have you ever considered

how difficult it can be

to make photos with the

same props all appear

different and interesting

all at the same time? 

sometimes i worry

that these pix will

become boring

Tights

Creativity involves

breaking out of

established patterns

in order to look at things

in a different way.

-Edward de  Bono

cleaning out my sock drawer this morning,
i found this pair of tights --
do you ever wonder
where you got something? 
and then in the same moment
wonder why you kept it?










i have to admit

they were fun to

wear for a series

of pix......

perhaps that is

the only reason

i kept them :)
