You lifted me up

when I felt down

brought hope and joy

as I turned around

 

You told me plans

to take care of me

I felt secure

wrapped tightly in your arms

 

I returned the embrace

trusted your vision

as our words built a world

of our future divined

 

For first sight burst

forth an awakened love

glimmered a reality

of our deeply hidden dreams

Today is my dad’s birthday! I’m incredibly blessed to have a father who supports me no matter what. Especially after entering the real world, his experience and insight has served as pertinent advise. I merely have begun to scratch the surface of my lifetime goals for my career, writing, and relationships, and his shared vision for me keeps me focused. It’s easy to doubt my potential, and I’ve realized how important it is to surround myself with people who look at me and see me for who I am as well as who I will be. Hearing my dad tell me, “You should find a magazine where you can publish a monthly piece” reminds me that I can have that. All I need to do is put myself out there. Then I can rest assured knowing I’ve taken a step and have someone beside me to take the next one. I am fortunate to have a successful role model who shares big dreams for me and adjusts my focus to realize them.

Happy birthday Dad!

I snapped this photo at the beginning of my vacation, which started with an eye appointment the first morning. As a big Justin Timberlake fan, I couldn’t resist the urge to combine my love for his classiness with my budding photography in my own version of his 20/20 Experience album cover art.

At first I contemplated changing my profile pictures to that imitation, which got me cogitating (as usual). It stirred me to finally reveal a little more of myself on my page and make the information my own. What better reflects my interest in perspective and hints at the facets of what shapes mine than a selfy of my face behind a phoropter? The only slightly off detail is that you can’t see my eyes. That means you’ll have to read my blog to gain insight into how I see myself and the world around me. I aim to reflect the Light through encouraging words.

This photo should make its way onto my main page soon, accompanying a couple other wordy additions.

  • Starlit Darkness 
              As it felt like I continued to fall deeper into darkness, I reminded myself to keep dreaming positively.

  • Falling
          These plain manicures go back to the fall. The season marked a time of change and a new look at my world. Perhaps the perspective in what I held in my hands stole some of the focus and expression I would normally have for my nail art.  I went from a bold […]

  • Plain Sparkles
    After the Top Shelf plain manicure, I had another plain one with some sparkles added. I just didn’t feel spirited enough to enjoy my me time. I still made myself go through the motions though. I might not have been applying makeup regularly, but I kept my nails polished. The little touches kept me from […]
