Follow your dreams. If you make it, there is no feeling any better. If you don't, then you have no regrets. At least you tried. But above all, never let anyone stop you from pursuing your passions in life. We only have one life and anyone trying to control you or your desires is a very selfish person. True love is unconditional. Suppressing your natural talents, desires and creativity will only leave you feeling empty if it's at the hands of someone wishing to control you for their own selfish reasons. Soon, you will not even know who you are anymore. The real you will get so consumed in trying to please you will forget what pleases you.

For those who do not know me, my Flickr is a journey of my transformation. For several years I was involved in a very toxic relationship. Do not mistake my words. The person is not a bad person, but for me the relationship was very toxic. It destroyed who I truly am. The real person inside of me regressed until I no longer knew who I truly was anymore. My Flickr is a journey of my healing. My coming back alive and remembering who I am and my passions that I have always enjoyed.

I welcome all who would like to come along with me and follow what I refer to as my "rebirth" and healing process. I thank all of you for your kind words and encouragement. Most of all, I want to offer special thanks to my wonderful soulmate, Neo and a very dear friend Linda, who has just been a gift from God. She has shared much knowledge of her love of photography with me and is a constant source of encouragement and helpful criticism. Thank you both for loving and believing in me.
