¿Eres el tipo de persona que pone por delante sus intereses o eres ese tipo de personas que se preocupa primero por el bienestar de los demás, pensando luego en los propios?
Antes de que contestes esa pregunta, si es que no lo has hecho ya... me atrevo a pedirte que razones primero sobre quien estamos hablando.
En la actualidad está muy de moda el "altruismo", y realmente no tengo problemas con ello, básicamente porque no le doy mucha importancia, sin embargo, siempre y cuando sea por iniciativa propia y no por moda, me parece una bonita manera de vivir la vida. El problema básicamente es ese, la "moda" de hacer lo que se "supone" está bien, olvidando los intereses personales por temor a no ser aceptado, a no encajar, y a ser llamado egoísta.
La definición actual de egoísta está un poco lejos de lo que solía ser, y se juzga de mala manera el preocuparse por los intereses propios, cuando uno vela por su propia felicidad. No veo nada de malo velar por la felicidad propia, siempre y cuando no se pisotee el bienestar de otras personas. Juzgando hemos llegado hasta donde estamos, y juzgando terminaremos.
Por mi parte mi interés en vida es ser cada vez más feliz, y como estrategia debo pensar en mis intereses propios, lo que involucra que comparta mi egoísmo (siempre me suena interesante cada vez que lo pienso). El eliminar a personas tóxicas en nuestras vidas, atraer a aquellas de las que puedes aprender y crecer... no debe ser una situación en la que conocer a una persona para arreglarla, sino alguien de quien puedas absorber lo que consideres necesario, y viceversa. No pretendo quedarme sentado a esperar a que las cosas buenas me sucedan, definitivamente la vida no es así (y mejor que no sea así).
Espero cada uno de nosotros, persiguiendo nuestros sueños, logremos vivir una vida de búsqueda emocionante, apasionada, compartiendo experiencias y aprendiendo de los demás. No esperen a que sucedan las cosas, fíjense objetivos y persíganlos como si ya fuesen suyos.
Self omission
Are you the type of person who puts their interests ahead or are you the kind of person who is first concerned with the welfare of others, then thinking of yourself?
Before you answer that question, if you have not already done ... I dare to ask you first about who we are talking about.
Today the "altruism" it is very fashionable thing, and I really have no problems with it, mainly because I do not give much importance, however, as long as it is from your own initiative and not for the trend, it seems a nice way to live a life. The problem is basically that "people" do it because is what is "supposed" to be good, forgetting personal interests for fear of not being accepted, not fitting in, and being called selfish.
The current definition of selfish is a bit far from what it used to be, and judged badly by worrying own interests, when one looks after his own happiness. I see nothing wrong ensure their own happiness as long as the welfare of other people do not trample. Judging we got where we are, and judging we will finish.
For me, my interest in life is to become more happy, and as a strategy I think about my own interests, involving share my selfishness (always sounds interesting every time I think). Eliminating toxic people in our lives, attracting those from which we can learn and grow ... should not be a situation where you meet a person to fix it, but someone who can absorb what you think is necessary, and vice versa . I do not intend just sit around waiting for good things to happen to me, life is definitely not like that (and better than not).
I hope each of us to pursue our dreams, we manage to live a life of exciting, passionate pursuit, sharing experiences and learning from others. Do not wait for things to happen, look persíganlos objectives as if they were his own.
Some women fear the fire,
some simple become it...

when I look in the mirror I sometimes think that I'm too old to be doing self portraits and often ask myself when should I stop. How do you know when to stop?
I know for a fact I'm not a model, I don't look like one nor do I have the body of one so perhaps I shouldn't worry about when I should stop doing self portraits. Perhaps one day someone will come on my stream and just say "ugh you need to stop doing sp's lovely" and maybe that will be the day when I sit up and listen. In all honesty though I'll probably tell them to piss off!!!!!
Off to put my feet up in front of the coal fire as I have yet another cold coming on. I hate winter.
"My art is an extension of myself, a third hand that serves my thoughts and dreams to the world. It is dark and I happily use the word creepy, yet it can also be whimsical and sad and surreal. These words do not define the process, simply the end result. What we are is more than what everyone sees when the process is complete."

I visited the darker side of my imagination this week and it felt good. That old feeling came back, the creeping thought of "should I share this?" and I was immediately at peace, happily moving forward with a self-portrait that calls to mind earlier works while pairing it with a new environment.
Create what you love, no matter what <3
So this a self-portrait. It was an extra credit assignment that gave me the motivation to do this shot. I have been thinking about doing something like this for a while, and today I finally had the off camera flash capability.
Strobist: 580 EX II camera right set at 1/4 power on Manual. Direct lighting. Triggered by Cactus V2s. 10 second Self Timer.
Even though I still have some photos from today, this is my last self-portrait at 15 years... In a week I'll be 16.
Oh, and on 27th I have some kind of test, before I can start the photography courses. I don't know what I need to ad it, but I still can't wait to start the curse =D
