In a time where everyone is trying to fit in...it's those that remember that being different is what is talent. In a society where everything sounds the same, it's those who dare to be ahead of the curve, and demonstrate layers of talent that will rise.

Life Observations & Photography ♥♫♥

What a year... getting settled... taking a good look around... what can you do? Observe. I have always had a passion for observing the atmosphere, life, I take an active role but it's good to sit back and watch carefully. Sometimes you have to take a step back and take a good look around at the interactions. Some are direct, close to perfect, others are this constant game that you wonder what are your intentions? So what did I do? I picked up the camera..

a passion I've had for a a very long time. The result, moments... people... events... why so many pictures? It gives you a chance to take a step back and look at what matters and what doesn't. It helps understand your surroundings when you are & are not in the moment. It helps make observations of who has the actual creases in the smiles & who is just playing possum in your space.

There is a lot of chasing going on in South Florida. There is also a lot of catching but I don't see the appreciation after the fact. Call me crazy but I believe in treating people the way you wish to be treated... "Hi my name is Crazy" " Hi Crazy" Is it really who you know, how you look, what you have, what you can offer? I'm direct... this is me. Yes "Less is More" as my mentor has taught me, BUT... let's get to the point shall we? What are you waiting for? Why pass up moments? Why pass up an opportunity willing to give you everything you wanted? Scared? Fine. Grow up. Deal with it. We live in a time where it just seems to be flying by so are you going to enjoy the day or let life pass you by so quickly that you will say, " I wish I, I should of..." Too little too late.

We settle into lives due to what is ideal, but what about what makes us happy? Can you truly be honest with your mate so you can have the best of what this world has to offer? I know I don't want to settle, I know I don't want to be one of those people that draw an ultimatum but in life you should only surround yourself by those striving for more, and good energy. It really is true, you can find the most beautiful person you have ever seen but you want them to stay quiet for if they talk it's ruined? Yes take care of yourself, FOR YOU, but beauty truly comes from within. If you truly project something better the outside will match that energy or get there soon enough. Patience... something I'm good at depending on the situation...but I'm human. I wanted it yesterday. Selflessness something I'm great at.. now hit the Yang... I want it all too. Is that wrong? Isn't it if you put forth the effort without ever asking for it , or expecting it, it will come back to you?

I'm trying to cram a year of moments, adventures, music, talent, photography, opportunities, all into one blog and it just isn't going to happen so lets just go out like this. We live in a very grey society. Figure yourself out, and don't feel the need to have to have a reason for your actions other than you are trying to live you best life possible. We live in a modern age full of opportunities. Appreciate, grow, strive, mentor, and if you can't back up your talk with actions then shhhhhhhhh please...Life is too short for waiting around.♥♫♥
