A toy helicopter maneuvers through a workplace landscape during a few moments of stress relief. Life is too short to be serious all the time.
moments like this, when experienced through the lens of my camera - well, they invigorate and inspire me to press on, just when i've grown weary of putting my heart on display through my art.
i was freshly reminded of the privilege it is to catch little pieces of people's lives like this and help tell their story as it is in motion.
it sets me in motion.
to be anything but happy!
This morning I got a text saying that a friend was killed in a car accident around 7:45 AM. He was only 28 years old!!!! I am so angry. I have sooo much anger boiling inside of me. Life is not fair. This is a huge eye-opener. Life is simply just too damn short. I could wake up tomorrow and my world could be changed forever. I could lose someone so much closer to me. If my card is pulled tomorrow and my time here on Earth is done, I don’t want to sit back and see any regrets. I’ve tried and as always it was never enough. Life is simply too short to be chasing after people or to sit here listen to people with their BS bashing and sh*t talking. I’m right here. If someone has something to say, then be mature enough and say it to me. I’ve done nothing to deserve this. I’ve supported you, encouraged you and stood by you. I’ve been done dealing with the pointless drama for many, many months. I simply don’t give a f*ck anymore. So keep your sh*t to yourself and find a new target. I’m done wearing the bulls-eye on my back for you. I’m done being the one who gets the brunt of your bad moods. I’m supposed to wait….. for what?? To keep enduring this sh*t?? To hell with that. I value my life and my heart way too much to allow you to keep stringing me along and hurting me. I’m so over this sh*t. Give it to someone else.
I have people in my life that love me. If you loved me, you’d be here too. Guess that right there should have said it all a few months ago! Again…. This tragedy has been an eye-opener. I’m done trying.
To all the woman out there who point out their flaws, and find things they don't like about themselves.... we are not all supposed to be the same. We are all unique in our own speical way. If there is something you don't like.... try to change it. If it is something you cannot change, just know there are people that have it a lot worse than us. Don't sweat the small stuff. Just take what you have and love it. We only get one chance at this life thing...... try to focus on something that really matters.
