I'll be waiting for you - Day 3

So hard to choose.  I wear bottle bottom glasses... Mummy goggles... when it comes to the girls.   To me each of them is unique and quite divine.  I have mummy goggles on, and probably the strongest prescription available.   So its difficult to pick a shot for today. girls-0731

Today I sat - DAY TWO

Today I sat with someone whom I admire, respect and adore.  Life has a funny way of dealing our cards and sometimes we struggle and question why it can be so god damn difficult.  Person I sat with today... I just want you to know that your heart and spirit is so large.  You are on the right path.... be alive with your journey and feel no guilt because however it ends up you will both win... no questions asked.   Thank you for being who you are because its pretty god damn awesome!!! It got dark quickly today - as it does in winter - I realized around the...oops too late mark and had to improvise with what I could.

So this is it!!    I hope your day was as cool as mine xxx

And so it begins - DAY ONE

Its been a battle of momentous proportions.  An inner struggle to hunt, search for the voice I feel as though I have lost.  I guess its something everyone at some stage would suffer.  The feelings of insecurity, the personal pressure that we put upon ourselves.  A very wise and brilliant man once said (Jonathan Canlas I salute you).  That we need to shoot for ourselves...its vital.  I nod my head in agreement however I know that I have lost the ability to do so due to my anxiety of failure... what if no one likes what I do?  What if I see something that no one else can? Today a voice screamed inside my head.... get up and just do it.... put down that plate of food and take some pictures... of anything... maybe nothing, but just begin.

SO day one.... and tomorrow will be day two and so on.

F.I.N.D

I could sit here for hours.... and hours.... and I would still struggle to find the perfect words. I have deleted.... and written.... and deleted again.

10 days ago I struggled, I found waking to be a chore..... I am time poor, there are not enough days in my hours, and I find it hard to keep my head above the rush of water that is overwhelming me. Yes I signed up for this, its my doing.... but I struggle. On Sunday I left for Melbourne to take 3 days... this was a massive loan from my time bank and to begin I'm not sure my 'head' was in it... my heart however needed this. To say that my expectations were met and then some is an understatement, Jonathan Canlas you are indeed a person who is whole and real. Not only do I feel overwhelmed and exuberant about beginning the journey of film but I feel blessed that I was brave enough to stop my world and take the time to rediscover my reason for doing what I do.

Again I cannot F.I.N.D the perfect words..... all I can say is that I met people that I will hopefully know forever.

Tick tock

As time ticks, faster than I wish..... I wait patiently for my life to catch up to my world.  I wistfully wish I could stop all movements and catch my breath, alas the clock hands still move around.... and around.... and around.  If you are waiting for me, if you are wishing I was more present, please know that I am..... here.... I just need my life to catch up with my world, and I am working very hard at making that happen. img_0322
