But, I have known some folks who take that advice to heart.

Long exposure, Lens movement.

{78/365} Are we ever really happy with our self image?

No, I wont wear make up. No, I wont change. Sorry you can't love yourself the way I love myself. You can stop dragging me down now, you wont change me.

My wife went as Edith Ann (Lilly TOMlin character from SNL for those that remember). I wore my Jackie Kennedy suit. Suit, designer original, shoes Italian, matching gloves purse and hat.

ABUSE

5. Obsolete . to deceive or mislead.

 

It comes in many forms, ya see. Physical. Verbal. Emotional. Spiritual.

It's nearly inescapable and completely inevitable. Nobody wants to feel this. Nobody wants to know the feeling of sadness so deep, so desprate that it drives you to the insane thought that maybe you deserved it. Maybe it actually is all your fault afterall. Maybe he didn't mean to hit you... that hard. Maybe those words were an accident and deep down inside, he actually thinks you're worth his time. Maybe the game he's playing with your heart is a joke.. He doesnt mean to harm. Maybe he actually supports you and your beliefs. Maybe he cares.

Maybe not.

I don't know all about physical abuse.. I only learn from stories and testimonies. But im well aware of verbal, emotional, and spiritual abuse. Not from my parents, not from my family, just from living in a world so corrupt that people see no problem in doing whatever it takes to get on top. It's all about you. Yes, you. What you say to people is insignificant because it makes YOU feel better. It lifts YOUR spirit. You're the most important one here, aren't you?

Or.. are you?

 

Express yourself -" Help yourself "typos and all lol and then -

laugh at your mistakes ... fix it if it is necessary, as long as you hurt no one...

This shows I am not perfect and ok with it, not going to fix it ,

bringing the message over is more important and this mistake

served a purpose... so just as well

Hold on to my own destruction

I fall face first

Watch me, I'm on display

This cycle of human decay

What do we believe

about ourselves

that we want the whole world to be convinced of as well ?

 

What definition

of ourselves

do we try to prove

to the rest of the world

at every

possible occasion ?

 

That we are stupid ?

Inadequate ?

Unlucky ?

Clumsy ?

Cursed ?

That we are too fat ?

That nobody listens to us ?

That we don't have our place among others ?

That we are cowards ?

 

Or greater than our neighbors ?

More clever ?

More deserving ?

That they resent us ?

That they prevent us from being what we could ?

 

Given enough repetition

we may manage them to finally prove it

At the very least to ourselves

We may succeed

At least in despairing the rest of the world about us.

 

There must be a better way.

[Reflections are not Mirrors]

 

The earth is a looking glass and gives back to every eyes the reflection of what is it above us. They say water is life's mater and matrix, mother and medium. There is no life without water. It's not only that, they are also the reflection agent when there's no mirrors. No one can see a reflection in running water. It is only in still water that we can see.

 

Some days or nights are made for torture, or reflection, or the savoring of loneliness. The skies are one corrupt, perfectly white flower, yearning for its own reflection, in the calm waters. Without reflection, we go blindly on our way, creating more unintended consequences, and failing to achieve anything useful. Without deep reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.

 

Reflection envelops lots of things in the world. One is reflection of ones self. Your grammar is a reflection of your image. Good or bad, you have made an impression. And like all impressions, you are in total control. Style is a reflection of your attitude and your personality.

 

Just like waters, I am a reflection. What I wear is a reflection of where I am going and how I am feeling. If I'm in a good mood, it's got to be cashmere and jeans - just something comfy, soft and warm. When I'm down, I might find something that I haven't worn for a while that was bought for me - or wear a brooch or a pair of shoes that are like old friends.

Go on, save your scissors.

 

This is my final piece for my college project ''Self Image''. For the project, we had to create a photo that portrayed us in some form or another. There's a meaning behind this but i'll leave that for you guys to interpret on your own. :)

 

It's my birthday on Sunday!! i'll be 17. Awww yeeeeeee :D

THANK YOU FOR ANY VIEWS, COMMENTS, FAVES AND INVITES.

Today is D-day. I am starting a new diet. I am getting a free 8 week pass for the gym and I am feeling determined to take control of my weight.

 

It was so hard to take this photos (and not just cos I don't have a tripod lol). I don't like to face how big I really am as a general rule but today I am not letting myself hide from it.

 

Today is the first day of the rest of my life and all that.

 

So this is me - this is the start of my photo journal of weight loss. Wish me luck - I'm going to need it!

this picture i shot with the cameras flash.

According to their verbal history, this economically detached village was formed in the year 700. The town elder has the nicest abode, but it comes with a price. Once he becomes “too old” he is killed off by the villagers. There is no other graceful handoff of power. If poison in the food does not work, he is buried alive.

 

The kids are quite cheerful despite all that. I was happy to find a connection with the old trick of a shared photograph of them, like this one. With many megapixels, I got a squeal of delight as I zoomed in on each of their faces.

25 Jan - Piano Keyboard

 

Self image project No.1

As many of you know, I am an amateur musician. Music is one of the important things in my life.

Although I am not a pianist mainly, I accompany my daughter's violin on the piano.

 

I don't put neither manicure nor jewelry at all when I play the instruments (also cooking).

The image was so plain with hands only so I put a bracelet for a touch/an accent today. Do you think it is better?

 

And of course, I manipulated "skin smoothing" in Aperture!

"And I just can’t look - it's killing me

And taking control

Jealousy, turning saints into the sea

Turning through sick lullabies

Choking on your alibis

But it’s just the price I pay

Destiny is calling me

Open up my eager eyes

‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside "

 

The killers - Mr. Brightside

 

Bilden är dedikerad till en vän. Min bästa vän. Hon läser troligen inte detta, men jag velat säga det...

View On Black

 

So clearly I was playing with light and sheers and nude shots today. I know my family all hate when I do this, but to me it feels so important. Part of this photography project for me is pushing my boundaries and discovering beauty in myself in ways in which I would normally not.

 

My issues with self-image have been plaguing me since I hit puberty. Somehow, being able to take and post shots like this feels a little like being able to shout at the world that I don't care what they think. I am me. Imperfect and unique. And I may not always love myself, but I'm trying.
