recently I've been analyzing too many things. Do you have days like that when you can't stop thinking of things you better not think about? Like what the future holds and other stuff.
Every day is a gift from God, no matter how old we are.

Things might be tough for me right now but that doesn't mean I still can't smile when I remind myself of how brave I've been and how far I've come.
Self-portrait playing with light from a lamp and the traffic lights coming through my blinds in the background.
Sometimes life is about self-exploration especially when one is going through a time of transition and change. I have been trying to decide what's up with the random self-portraits I've been doing since they are not particularly about being vain or showing off (which secretly I felt insecure about everytime I posted them). They are partly because life is busy, and in the evening when I finally get home there are only so many photography subject to take photos of. However, I am realizing after some self-reflection that they are about trying to re-learn who I am as just me. So here's one with hair a mess and no make-up. No smile because it's about looking looking backward, and self-reflecting for better or worse. This one is just me.
10/101 rostros que me hablen de ti...
Cuando estoy frente a un espejo suelo verme a los ojos
y entonces hago gestos graciosos.
¿Que cual de mis fotos es mi preferida? La que haré mañana.

Jeppe Hein - WHO AM I WHY AM I WHERE AM I GOING - 2017
A stroll past the booths of any given international art fair will reveal that neon’s potential as a material in art seems far from being exhausted. Aside from the texts, enormous popularity is currently also enjoyed by works that play with the additional use of other materials besides neon. For instance, the conjunction of neon and reflective elements is attractive for some artists. Jeppe Hein has a whole series of works in which neon tubes are integrated into a semi-permeable mirrored box. The neon systems mounted behind the mirror are visible from the outside, while the mirror fulfils its usual function on the front. WHO AM I WHY AM I WHERE AM I GOING is written on one of them. Spectators confront themselves in a mirror, on which a message is mounted. It is obvious who the addressee is, since he or she sees himself or herself in the mirror. The messages are utterly direct, they transport the person standing opposite into the Here and Now. If one loses oneself in art during an exhibition visit, one will be jolted back to reality on arrival at this point. One is compelled to deal with oneself.

Today's ODC challenge was not just a word or two but this quote: "A great wind is blowing and that gives you either imagination or a headache" quote by Catherine the Great
Self-reflection is a time to IMAGINE all sorts of things - some good, some bad. Either way, I usually end up with a HEADACHE!

I don’t know... Perhaps the opposite can also be said: if something is not meant to be, it will never find its way. Just like every word has synonyms and antonyms, the same can be true for life. But sometimes a sunset is so beautiful, and if one is fortunate enough to catch its reflection in the water, I suppose that is meant to be as well. Maybe “meant to be” isn’t always about the big events in life but rather about the small coincidences that we are lucky enough to experience.
