In my minds eye I see, you have no control of me. The internal will of freedom is set free, this I truly know to be. This is in my mind, you cannot control me, you see!

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo💜💜
The one with 8 legs is Matty. She is a Chilian Rose Tarantula. She is being held in this picture by my friend Jo who was with me at the arachnophocia workshop.
I had held her a couple of minutes before and I'm still smiling a day later! It goes to show that you really can do anything if you put your mind to it.

Birds flying high, you know how I feel...
There's a flock of birds that swoop around at dusk, I love watching them. They were my PAD 10 days ago too.
A really lovely day today, actually doing things, actually seeing people. Good :-)

Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on...

I wanted to be your all
But I dont even feel human
Am surely not a supergirl
Just powerless
Respect your body, take care of your health, dont take yourself for granted...there is no life without health...so dont be powerless, treat yourself well!
Wishing you all great health and peace of mind always.

Dublin, Ireland. One of my smart captures, if I may say so myself:-) I found the man interesting -- sitting there like that in the midst of all that city hustle and bustle -- and since he had his eyes closed anyway it was no problem taking a shot! Luckily the bus went by and I clicked just in time:-) Also, luckily, the man and the bus were both cleverly colour co-ordinated: yelow and blue. Sometimes you strike lucky in more than one way!

Shooting like this gives me a lot of opportunity to talk to strangers.
There's something about the camera that makes it alright.
Maybe it's a focal point that needs no explanation.
It becomes a reason that just is.
I learn so much from these encounters.
I see so many facets of humanity.
The experiences are so often prolific and enriching.
Some people say that our thoughts create the reality that surrounds us...
they postulate that 'our thoughts become our reality.'
More and more as I shoot the streets I begin to agree.
We are the creators of the reality in which we find ourselves immersed.
If our consciousness embraces the beautiful dynamic of life...
I'm telling you from my own experience...
life becomes beautiful.
Another experience proved this to me without a single doubt.
I was getting ready to leave on a long trip a number of years ago.
You know how you kinda do that 'last check' of the house to see if you've missed anything?
I smelled a burning odor...
and I realized that I might have left the iron on.
I couldn't believe I'd be that shortsighted.
I don't know why I did such a stupid thing but I reached out to the iron with my hand...
to see if it was hot...
I barely touched it but it stuck to my hand.
When I pulled my hand back in the recoil of pain...
the hot iron was pulled back with it and it made contact with my entire palm.
I could hear my skin sizzle... I could feel my skin cells popping like little steam explosions.
It was the exact same sound bacon makes when you cook it up.
It was hard to pull the iron off of my flesh... it really was stuck to it.
It was the worst, most painful burn I've ever endured.
It was bad.
I probably should have gone to the emergency room.
But I had to be on an airplane in an hour.
Immediately I sat down in the lotus position and held my burned hand in front of me.
I imagined my hand bathed in the most beautiful and radiant healing light.
With all of the intensity that I had within me I focused on the painful burn.
The only thought in my head, repeated over and over...
Was 'there will be no tissue damage... there will be no tissue damage...'
I thought that thought with a greater clarity, energy and focus than any thought I've ever thunk.
After about five minutes of this I opened my eyes.
There was no pain.
No pain at all.
There was an imprint of the iron across my entire palm.
The word 'Oster' was spelled backwards in the burn.
I jumped on that airplane a few minutes later and I flew far away... people would look at the burn and they were amazed...
you could see exactly what I did just by the print on my hand.
It looked incredible.
The amazing thing...
It never hurt again.
There was no blistering.
Not a single effect from the burn short of the dead skin's imprint.
None of the living tissue of my hand showed any sign of injury.
If I hadn't expereinced this myself I would never have believed it.
This moment impresed me so deeply and profoundly.
I believe that our thoughts create the reality around us to a great extent.
A red hot steam iron and a moment of stupidity proved that to me.
