If you could translate my heart.....

If you could translate my heart you would find simple things. But it is the simple things that can make everything complex.

Expression is a basic human desire, love and faith are a need.



I am Blessed:
I have the most beautiful children who I pray can feel even a percent of how much I love them
I have been given a gift to express myself
I have a wonderful examples in my life
I have the most amazing friends
I have a job doing one of the things I enjoy more than anything else
I have been taught truth

I find joy in the most simple of things:
like...
the smell of snow
watching my fan spin while laying upside down
driving backroads
watching light dance at dusk
the way the sun feels


But the simple things I love are also complex cause I want to somehow capture the peace those things bring me. I want to bottle that feeling of contentment but how... Music? Painting? Photography? Writing?

Music: only fuels my fire

Painting: is a goal

Photography: is my everest ..... I dont know if I will ever reach my level I have set for myself. If I will ever feel like I finally am there. Can people see what I see? can they feel the mood I wanted to express?

Writing: HA I am a horrible writer. I write like I speak and use bad grammar

So whats a girl to do to translate who she is. Why do I crave it so much?
Now for my readers I have never really asked. What do you what more of? Maybe I should try my hand at a give away. Maybe write about lighter things? I find I blog when I am in a more serious mind set....
I would love to hear your thoughts and I say that to you lurkers out there :)
You know who you are

Good. way to post. Dearest B who never answers her phone or calls me back.. i want you to know that you should just keep your blog the way it is. give-a-ways kinda bug. kinda seem desperate to me. but that's just because i think if someone cares about your thoughts.. or if you matter someone they'll take the time to absorb your thoughts.. reflect on them... and come up with something to say. just so you know that you matter. its easy to scroll through a blog with a million pictures of things they did the night before.. but what matters to me the most is when people are honest.. express their truth. that's the kind of things that truly help people. hello B have you read my blog? i'm as honest as it gets. passion frees us. you know that we're the same in many ways. express yourself. don't express yourself for the way you think people would prefer you to. music is a gift. writing is a gift. painting is freeing. * i could teach you * and writing.. well it heals the day. this is the longest comment i've ever had. Love thee. Diva.

Keep you blog the way it is...I love it. I do agree with Carly though, I love your clothes and wish I was more daring to wear more than jeans and a t-shirt.

Hey B
Don't think to hard about it. Do what your doing. I love looking at your blog because of your ear for interesting music, your clothes and how you put colors together, how beautiful your are, your pictures. Pretty much everything about you. Just do what make you happy and use it as just another part of your creative outlet because your uber creative and make most of us strive to have a little of what youve got.

I agree with the comment above. I want to know where you got that cardigan! :0)

Don't change a thing. Your blog is perfect just the way it is. I really do hope that you don't mind my reading or my occasional comments. I love and appreciate your honesty very, very much. All that really matters, though, is that your blog makes you happy. I have to remind myself of that all the time. I know that my blog is probably dull and boring to other people, but it's me. That's what it should be. It's the one place in my life where I'm allowed to be completely selfish and talk about what I want to talk about whenever I want to. I think that's the entire reason why I even have a blog. I think we all need that in our lives. Keep on doing what you're doing. That's my vote:)

You like each of us are unique- you have your blog to express all that you are and have become and will become... i love your photos... i love your insight... i love that you express what you feel when you feel it- I have yet to be photographed by you [ONE DAY... ugh i can't wait!] but I just fall in love with every shoot you do... its incredible... & I think you just continuing to embrace the life you lead and the person you are- just BE.

I want more patience. I want more understanding. I feel everyone is going through so many hard times and trials and they have their best foot forward which usually blinds me to love and be kind. This world, the people closest to me, we all just want to be loved and accepted. We just want to be told "We see you are trying your best. Great job. Keep going!".

Girl I love LOVE your blog. I love the way you write. I love the way you express yourself. Keep it up! I get excited when you post. Especially your beautiful pictures. One day when I have saved the money I will have you take our pictures. No doubt we'll look great because of your incredible talent to make everyone look smokin! Happy Holidays!

I love your blog the way it is. I like your honesty and even though I don't know you personally, the messages and feelings you convey through the music you post reaches me somehow. Thanks!

I like your honesty. I love your photos and music posts, but your inspiring to me when you're honest. I know what you have been through, and I can only imagine how hard its been. I think you are kind of amazing!
