Everyone says "love hurts", but that isn't true.

Loneliness hurts, rejection hurts,

but love,

love never hurts.

"It's only self rejection

With a mean left

Cold carbon copied coping

And it's mean theft

That's been left behind"

As i sit here and write this

I ponder my ability

to finish my 366

 

It has become less of a joy

and more of a judgment

and that is not what i need

 

I never really liked putting myself out there

as there is always the possibility of rejection

 

I sit here

between

wondering

contemplating

it all

long time no tea…

wednesday 28th october; postsecret #8

early this morning i watched "the butterfly effect" that i bought on DVD yesterday for £3. i love that film! i went to bed around 2am and got up at 1pm. joe has been at gazza's all day bumming the xbox so i decided to do some college work and format my phone card etc.

After driving through Arusha Park, my guide and I would return to Mt Meru Game Lodge to rest. But with the view I had from my porch, there was no rest for me. I looked up one afternoon and saw movement in the far end of the little park, then what looked like spines appeared and when I looked closer and the creature turned around, I saw it was a peacock.

 

Obviously, there were female peahens close by, but they paid absolutely NO attention to him. There he was with the appearance of a Las Vegas dancer with a headpiece on. At times, he looked awkward and slightly off balance, but dejected.

 

When all of this drama was over, he finally struted over to me and stayed around my room for awhile. I will show you that image this PM. Perhaps he knew that I was impressed and so I was. It is the first time I have seen the bird trying to mate even though I have travelled through India and Sri Lanka. I was thrilled!

 

Sorry about the pipe!! Difficult to hide it and I wanted you to see him with a natural setting around him!

it will embrace you, constantly, like a false friend.

This letter originally belonged to my grandmother. After she passed away we discovered it and were surprised at how well it was preserved for being nearly 70 years old.

 

The letter speaks for itself and it remarkable to note how times have changed since then.

I love the way the males always seem nervous in these situations - as if anticipating rejection!! Photographed in The Kalahari, in Botswana.

Jesus had a date with destiny during that

final week in Jerusalem. The people

would either accept Him or reject Him.

And whatever their decision He was ready

to pay the price. He had come to do His

Father's will, and the banner which mark-

ed His final week was "Thy will be done!"

all be in awe of what He did for us!"

I choose to love you in silence because in silence I find no rejection, and in silence no one owns you but me.

Fungi communities are broken too.

Forget about the rejections.

A nun is a member of a religious community of women, typically living under vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience, in the enclosure of a monastery.

Nuns historically take solemn vows and live a life of prayer and contemplation with a consious rejection of all worldly processions and comforts

Les pelotes de réjection ou boulettes de régurgitation sont des boules rejetées par les oiseaux, elles contiennent les éléments durs et non digérés des proies qu'ils avalent avalées en entier, comme les poils, les os, les coquilles, ou même les arêtes des poissons ingérées en ce qui concerne les Martins-pêcheurs.

 

A pellet, in ornithology, is the mass of undigested parts of a bird's food that some bird species occasionally regurgitate. The contents of a bird's pellet depend on its diet, but can include the exoskeletons of insects, indigestible plant matter, bones, fur, feathers, bills, claws, and teeth.

I choose to love you in silence,

for in silence I find no rejection.

I choose to love you in loneliness,

for in loneliness no one owns you but me.

I choose to adore you from a distance,

for distance will shield me from pain.

I choose to kiss you in the wind,

for the wind is gentler than my lips.

I choose to hold you in my dreams,

for in my dreams, you have no end.

~Rumi

"Demoralizing off-hand rejections, the feeling that you’re missing out on ‘real life’ because you’re pouring yourself into your passion, the belief that you don’t deserve the recognition you've received — these are problems every creative deals with on a monthly, weekly, and sometimes even daily basis.

 

But many rejections are just the standard prequel to your first sale; those people who aren't missing out on ‘real life’ often envy those whose lives are ruled by passion instead of convention; and ‘impostor syndrome‘ goes hand-in-hand with well-deserved success."

 

This is definitely something that resonates with me. Rejection is a tough thing for me to deal with since my work is so personal to me.

"Roll the dice" — Charles Bukowski

 

“If you’re going to try, go all the

way.

Otherwise, don’t even start.

 

If you’re going to try, go all the

way.

This could mean losing girlfriends,

wives, relatives, jobs and

maybe your mind.

 

go all the way.

It could mean not eating for 3 or

4 days.

It could mean freezing on a

park bench.

It could mean jail,

It could mean derision,

mockery ,

isolation.

Isolation is the gift.

All the others are a test of your

endurance, of

how much you really want to

do it.

And, you’ll do it

despite rejection and the

worst odds.

And it will be better than

anything else

you can imagine.

 

If you’re going to try,

go all the way.

There is no other feeling like

that.

You will be alone with the

gods

and the nights will flame with

fire.

 

do it, do it, do it.

do it.

 

all the way

all the way.

 

You will ride life straight to

perfect laughter, It’s

the only good fight

there is.”

Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don’t learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us. Cynics always say no. But saying “yes” begins things. Saying “yes” is how things grow. Saying “yes” leads to knowledge. So for as long as you have the strength to, say “yes'. - Stephen Colbert

125/365 The cynic in me is dying a death today, and I'm glad. I woke up, read my poems, wrote a poem, listened to my favourite piano music and didn't give a hoot whether or not it was some pretentious hipster way of enjoying myself, because I damn well loved it. The wonderful thing about the internet is that it opens you up to SO MUCH to soak in, so much to learn about everything, so many people to connect with. Unfortunately, due to a flaw in the internet filtration system, it's also wired my brain to be a bit cynical sometimes. I miss uncynical me. I re-read some of my old 365s from 8 years ago, and I was just so freaking happy to be alive. This time last year I was kicking around in piles of leaves, with such a pure idea of love and life, and I'm sad that it got trampled on this year by cynics. So even though the leaves may be turning brown, my mind is somewhere lost in spring. Blossom, pretty thoughts, blossom once more! <3

we fear failure,rejection, or the unknown .......don't think.....just keep going:)

Is this the end of the road? Is this what I´ve been walking towards all the time?

 

I´ve been walking on a bumpy road lately. It´s been full of big holes and sharp rocks. I´ve tried to keep the right direction. I don´t want to betray myself by taking another road. I´ve been wondering lately for how long you can hold on to your dream, how many no´s can you take, how much rejection? I think that we´re much stronger than we believe, and I believe that we´re only getting stronger when we hit the bottom. When we struggle, we may feel week, but every day we´re getting stronger!

This is Shahrazad - stranger #41 -b on my 100 strangers project.

 

Sometimes you keep looking around for interesting people and end up with nothing which is what happened on a prior visit to this location. But then sometimes you get lucky - look for one and end up with 4 amazing strangers – Eman, Shahrazad, Khadija and Faiza.

 

I was debating a collage of these 4 beautiful ladies and counting them as 1 for the project, but decided against since each came armed with distinct strong personalities; however I will be using the same narrative for each of them.

 

I just had a ‘rejection’ earlier but for good reasons and maybe for the best since that’s when I first saw this group of young ladies in their striking attire at a distance. As I approached them Emam was the first lady in the group that I noticed. Now a lady in a Hijab has been on my wish-list for a while – and Eman’s expressive eyes with her nice skin tone framed by the brown hijab was a great opportunity.

 

But even as I was making my pitch I realized that I in fact had 4 potential strangers instead of one. Each of the 4 friends had unique standout personalities. But two potential issues existed – were these minors? Secondly would they be agreeable to a picture – especially with a stranger? Also the traditional attire and religious reasons could be a problem. But they all agreed to participate after I explained the project – and indicated that they were all ‘adults’ and had no problems being photographed.

 

They were meeting folks there and had a few minutes so we walked across the streets to a shaded location. Then we proceeded to do the individual pictures as the rest waited on busying themselves with their phones and chatting. I confess that with the prospect of photographing 4 beautiful ladies, I did find it difficult to remember all their details including their names and any other interesting tidbits about them. Since Eman was the first, I retained more information about her – especially since her Arabic name means Faith (and is also used in India). She is studying health research and I think has an enigmatic personality. Khadija came armed with a vivacious personality. She made a great presence with her beige dress and deep red lipstick. As soon as I indicated that we could click the pics in a narrow passage her playful reaction was ‘What?? Alley? My parents told me to stay away from alleys”  … Well personally, alleys are a photographers

allies . She is from Somalia and studies with Eman. Shahrazad stood out with her tall upright posture – looking like a model – and even in her case the hijab really helped bring out her nice eyes framing her pretty face. Faiza could effortlessly switch between a smiling happy face and nonchalant expression– her colorful scarf and her traditional accessories/jewellery she was wearing really enhancing her personality. If I remember correctly she is Ethiopian (like Eman) and studies Maths.

 

Though I shot a few pics with Shahrazad, it was this pic in between shots when she was sitting and checking her phone (and I asked her to look up) that I liked the best.

 

What I loved about these pictures was the absolute confidence these young ladies displayed and how photogenic they were effortlessly switching from intense expressions to smiling ones, and how resplendent they looked in their ethnic wear.

 

At the end of the individual pictures, they requested a group picture which I duly clicked.

 

Thank you Shahrazad for being a part of the project. It was wonderful clicking pictures with you and your friends!! All the very best for your future!!
