Something bright for a change. Haha. I've noticed all my pictures are somewhat bleak and somewhat depressing. So, hopefully, thi will liven up someone's spirits. :)
Borrowed this camera from a friend. :) I really liked using it. :(
I didn't want to leave. I said goodbye with teary eyes. But somehow I knew it was all for the best. I parted from the summer and welcomed a new life

I get dizzy when I look at this shot too long! I'm sorry about all the flowers and butterfly uploads. It isn't really my thing but I thought I'd try it out.
Leaving to England today. I'm excited. Although apparently the locks of our house have been changed and we don't have the right keys anymore. Perhaps I'll experience my first "sleeping on the street" :) WIsh me luck!
Oh and for any film lovers. I've written a film review on my blog for Los Abrazos Rotos.
The weather looked dull, but in the end turned out just right for a ride down to the Needles Battery and back on the top deck!
“We are optimistic because we have every reason to be,” said Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners Chairman Charlotte Nash as she delivered her State of the County address on Thursday, January 16, 2014, at the Gwinnett Center during the annual State of the County luncheon hosted by the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce and the Council for Quality Growth.
Turning attention to the future, Nash reminded the audience that the County’s bicentennial is coming in December 2018. She used this milestone to illustrate the importance of planning Gwinnett’s third century. “I believe that our plans should be aimed at Gwinnett setting the standard for a thriving community, not just being a mediocre also-ran,” she said. “It’s going to take all of us – not just those of us in this room, but all of Gwinnett’s individuals and communities – working together to make this a reality.”

Instead of complaining that the rosebush is full of thorns,
be happy that the thorn bush has roses.

Optimistic rail replacement service ...
This bus is going out of service (driver has nipped into Hooton station), but the following all stations bus to Birkenhead is not as close as the sign implies ...

Feeling Optimistic - Its been a while since my last portrait.Its been a while sicne I have felt even a little bit creative and at ease. Today I feel more optimistic and positive.
This is part of my Self Portrait project. Experimenting with light, and being on the other side of the camera, hopefully helping to build my self esteem, self image while learning lighting techniques and expressing myself.
I’m an optimistic futurist - that’s another way of saying that I can’t walk on stage and say to the audience “guess what! Your future sucks!” I wouldn’t get a lot of repeat business.
I’ve actually turned that phrase into a great storyline on stage - it resonates with people!
Yet, if you think about it, negativity is the cancer that leads to failure.
You don’t hear of Olympians talking about how they were focused on losing when they were at the top of the ski hill. Race car drivers who are relentless in their pursuit of last place. Game show contestants who want to walk away with the least amount of money.
Innovation is the same way. If you are going to pursue a new idea involving a radical new product or service, you need to be relentless on your potential for success, not the chance for failure. Your strategy must presume that you’ll win, so that you’ll do everything you can to ensure that you achieve that result.
Positive attitudes are energy and fuel for action, because they help to define the effort that we might put forward towards any initiative we pursue.
This is why you find so many leadership narratives focused on success and opportunity, rather than potential risk and downside. If you are going to motivate a group of people to step out of their ‘comfort zone’, you need to feed the enthusiasm that it will be a worthwhile investment.
Here’s the kicker - your positive attitude might not always lead to equally predictable results, it’s far better than the alternative!
