NOTICE

BTW: All photos unless posted in a group are locked from public comments unless I follow that person. No contribution in the profile is a no-follow from me. This was done years ago and as of 2021, I have no plans to change that default setting. I had too many off-the-wall comments from photos not posted in groups.

My apologies in advance if anyone feels like they are blocked by me. So far everyone I’ve blocked is not on this platform. Not to mention I’m a paying user so I treat everyone and I mean everyone with the level of respect that I expect.

September 10, 2014

I do have two profiles! Once upon a time, this one was going to be closed! The week I was going to close it a dear sister gifted me with a pro account and the rest is history as I grew this to be my premier collection of photos. There is nothing of a pornographic nature in my collections nor do I take such photos.

ABOUT ME

I am a very nice woman who truly accepts who she is 100%! No longer do I allow fear to guide my life. I am also a businesswoman who works hard to build her business.

Over the years I have become a mentor to others within our community and often I spend time on Facebook answering messages from the younger crowd who are often looking for someone to communicate with. Often I spend countless hours being a mentor/role model of that person on the other end that listens to their problems. My goal is to always end a message thread with a resolution to what they are going through and often it is a worthwhile sacrifice.

The main reason for my success in the community is those who have mentored me. It is very important to have people who are on the journey ahead of you that have already been where you at to help guide you through the difficult times you will face on this road.

The next key I accepted myself first! Then before I could mentor or be a role model to others I had to learn to be mentored! A good leader in my book knows how to be a good follower.

Another key is knowing that you need to be part of a support group! Even if you don't attend every meeting it is important to be part of a group of common people no matter your life journey or even your life career! If you retired being with others is very important just to keep you going and living a longer life!

This key is very important and that is to find out who you are! Many sites tell you how to be you! The best thing I learned was to use those very sites as guidelines. I learned that I held on to the traditions taught to me by my grandmother! One tradition she hammered home was no proper lady would leave home without hose and makeup! Well, I do my makeup! and in the summer months, the hose is for business-related errands or seminars/conferences. I've learned that we grow through our own personal experiences not those of others.

My mother taught me how to be either way! I know how to be a lady and what is expected of me as a lady. What you see in me is a hybrid of my two #1 first mentors R.I.P! My Grandmother and my Mother! I am my Mothers Daughter and my Grandmother, Granddaughter.

The one thing I have learned here on Flickr since 2006, is that at times we place ourselves in anger boxes because people tend to not know who you are or assumed one thing about you based on your photos or profile. For me, for years I had a profile that when I read it after being told about it! I saw I was very angry at it! So it was time to change it to let you read my mini-bio. There is much more about me to the point this would be a 1-hour read :)

May 2020

I am also a special Wife (2020) to a wonderful Huband and by special, we are still married to our spouses and have committed ourselves as a couple, our ages are far apart, however, that doesn't stop our love for each other. My husband and I have been together officially since December 20, 2018, on our second date. We had our first date on December 13, 2018, and it was on the second date that we connected and truly fell in love with each other. I accepted his commitment online on January 7, 2020, with a planning official ceremony hopefully in 2020. It is my Husband that has made me a better Woman and I am making him a better man. So sorry guys and gal, I am married to a wonderful man.

I am also a Mother and Grandmother to a Lovely Daughter and Granddaughter.

Change:

As you can see I am more motivational and in every photo posted here, I try to always motivate others. You never know what one motivational word can do to help a person. Sometimes I post similar poses! It is not about the pose BTW it is about the message with the pose.

The only thing I ask is if I break any of your flavoring rules please contact me as many individual guidelines are different and not to mention Flickr has changed as well where you pretty much click the star and move forward.

For me, I have decided to let people be people and no longer will block a person unless they became rude to me. Retaliation block made me look childish and was not how I was raised as a child. I've removed many of those blocks and I apologize for those in the past that I did that too. If I did fave your photo I try to keep a list of who I need to revisit and comment on your photos.

NOVEMBER 18, 2022

Because for one I am a married woman and seems like all searches now find me under my married name, it was time to apply my Husband's last name as my primary here on Flickr. I've been slowly moving to my married last name over the last 2 years since I became the wife of a really good man. Yes, guys, he knows I get many flirts from other men he has no problem because he knows I am his and he is mine.

CLOSING

The only thing I truly ask is to keep your comments clean! Respect me and my Sisters. Understand I am married with a child so there will be no meeting! I enjoy friendships and I do have personal friends/sisters I actually spend time with them and sometimes their spouses. True friendship is very important to me at this age where it is hard to find.

Take time to tour my photostream and if you are not able to see the over 17,000 photos you do have access to about 22% of all the photos and this is a living photostream which means I move photos in and out of the public view weekly.

I thank you for reading this as I wanted to give you a little look inside at how I think today! I will not even dare post the old profile back! I thank the person who pointed out the negative tone that this profile once had and I hope this story file :) is better than a generic profile.

Have Fun, Be Safe and Enjoy Life,

Mrs. Victoria Michelle Williams
