Uhh the pressure is relentless… π
I’ve noticed that different feelings and moods I have come out through different platforms. When I feel down and depressed I tend to write a lot. When I feel positive and inspired in an excited way, that comes out through visual formats, like drawing and taking photographs. When I started this blog I was feeling quite down and trapped and it was mainly an attempt to communicate my feelings in the only way I found possible. Luckily, I don’t feel quite that bad anymore. In fact, lately I’ve been feeling rather positive, albeit all the uncertainty about the future and the cold and dark winter and such. I’m feeling quite balanced, like I’m finally starting to accept who I am and, gasp, that I might be good enough as is. Perhaps this is just a temporary phase, but in any case, it is a very welcomed development. What it does mean is that I haven’t felt the need to pour my heart out in words so much… (and yes my book project has been on ice for a couple of months now as well…). So, I suppose this place has become more of update on banalities, rather than an insight about me. Which in a sense is a good thing as well, for it means that I am OK. π
I’m also very excited about having new people in my life. Wonderful, beautiful, creative people, who inspire me so much.
As you’ve probably noticed, I’ve become completely enthralled by photography again. Have a look at my glass of ice water. Next I think I’m gonna move on to fizzy drinks! Ooh the excitement of it all. π
Oh and just to make Colin (*spit*) a bit jealous, here’s some self portraits of my new mate Richard. Boys, you might want to look away now, girls… oh you’re there already… π
