what to do...

People keep asking me what I want to do? To the tell you the truth I don't really know the answer to that. I understand that I need a plan for my future so that it can be expected among society and those around me that I have a sense of direction of where I'm going that won't lead me into failure. Although, what does a plan really give anyone except a comfortable feeling about the unknown of how the plan will eventually change, and make more room to plan for the next unexpected thing. I want to experience the unexpected occurrence of life and DO things that give me that warm fuzzy feeling within that evolved from the actuality of what is in front for my eyes to see. I want to try and capture the evil amongst the living and the beautiful amongst the ugly that strays through the days of constant familiarity. I want to feel the dirt on my feet , the sun on my back and that strangers hand on mine hanging on for any inch of hope we have left. I'm ready to experience those things, and to see  with love as my guide.I do not need a plan, but to trust that I am going the right way, and will end up where I need to be with just being me.

It's been a year already?

I haven't written on my blog since last year... my how things have changed. I feel like this year was the most hectic, life altering, exciting, heart throbbing, and aching year I've ever had. It was a year I'd like to call " Hello, Billie Jo... WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!"

It sure kicked me in the ass a couple times, but it also gave me light into things I was so unaware of seeing before. However, clarity eventually arose in several occasions where it nearly took my breath away. I was able to change my mind and change it again. I fell in love with opportunities, and traveled to places I needed to remember and came across others that I needed to meet. The beauty of what is in the world around me struck me like bee on the butt.

I then sank into the earth on my dark days because sometimes I felt like that was all I had, but what a beautiful thing that is to learn to appreciate.

Nevertheless, my photos reached a peak of intensity this year that I now thrive on and want to only continue with the captures. With the action of snapping away I was able to reach people on levels I never knew existed, and learn a little bit about myself that was too deep inside before.I am ready to start fresh, dedicate myself to photos and find souls that help me explore more into the unknown. The past is gone, but but my future is bright. I want to write more to keep reminding myself, I CAN DO WHATEVER I PUT MY MIND TO. Photos help me capture what is, but writing helps me think about what will be.

Happy New Year.

here we go again.
