where are you
where is your heart
where is your mind
is your spirit dancing
or laying silent
do you sense the winds of change
the wheel ready to turn
are you harboring only goodness
or feelings left to decay
are you balanced
standing tall for all that you believe in
or hanging in despair
are you soaking up the gift of light
or sinking within the shawdows
are you holding tight to all you want
or does all feel as if it is slowly slipping away
can you see clearly
or is the path before you a blur
where ever you are
i kindly ask this of you
honor yourself
and all that you stand for
always be true to you
be just as you are
and never like another
stretch yourself far and wide
till you couldn't even dream no more
reach for what you want
even if your the only one
never fear standing alone
sticking out
for why would we all want to blend as one
savor your colors given
relish in your uniqueness
let yourself glow amongst the others

Ah! I have so many things to say to you!
First, thank you for your sweet comment - it really means a lot! I don't know how I missed yours, but I will comment below - she is STUNNING!!
Second, I want to tell you how much you have inspired me to share more about my personal beliefs on my blog - I feared that I may put myself out there too much but you (and Willow!) have inspired me to just say it - you and I share a lot of core beliefs and I appreciated knowing that if no one else, you would "get it!" Thank you!
Third, check out those followers - way to go lady!
Last, I assume you have seen shutter sisters? You should really consider participating - your photos are so elegant, xoxoxox
Fair be, the light that shines for all to see!
Your light is bright and strong and full of grace Dear One! Such a heartfelt writing today! I adored it!
Walk In Beauty my Friend!
A'Ho!
Beautiful inspiration....thank you for helping us to uphold our beliefs and for reminding us of our inner strength :)
Thank you for your friendship!
That was beautiful...a wonderful thought to go to bed on.

A beautiful prayer / poem / exhortation! Just what I need today -- thank you!
Great words to remind us of the possibilities of life. One good thought, as with a single step, begins our journey.
Thanks for sharing.
Happy Sunday.
Look at all that beauty you captured. What a wonderful walk it must have been - quite magical!
Good Morning to you too!!! Is this "OUR" new camera? I will just email you and tell you what photo's i want you to take, haha!! I love the colors, talk about making the colors "POP" out!!
I'm here, there, between, and betwixt! I'm looking at you, and me, always. Giving thanks for what I've received and sticking my tongue out at adversity (to confuse her and overcome her). I'm basking in Nature and letting the changes of the season remind me that although I might not always look new, when my spring arrives I'll be a unique fresh of my own goodness and I'll dance a new song.
You are so inspire my dear!
So much wisdom and love, thanks and blessings, The Olde Bagg
How beautiful and inspirational, faerwillow! I so appreciate that you posted this. Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes: To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.
Much love to you on this day! Thank you for your love and light. Theresa
What beautiful words, thank you! Sometimes I have a hard time remembering that it is okay to just be me and to appreciate my uniqueness, so thank you for the kind reminder :) I hope you are having a truly lovely weekend, Lauren
lovely light capturing here ~ in words and images!
Truly beautiful and though provoking post. I like the contrasting choices you presented. Clearly easy to chose, yet sometimes like takes on a different route and it is very easy for some of us to wallow in the darkness. As a parent, I always want my children to follow the light and create their own, it's a challenge in this day and age, so many distractions. Have a great week!
such beautiful photographs ~ I love the pure light radiating through them.
Just beautiful! Lucky for you to have such a gorgeous fall palette. Our foliage, unfortunately, won't be much this year because of our long summer drought...
FW-such great autumn colours in contrast with the rich greens and stunning light. B
one for my brain cells to ponder.
beautiful images as always.
Such bright pure light filtering through ALL that is distinctive and beautiful: within all that we see and feel... heart, mind and spirit... wherever we are and whatever we are doing... each radiating that tender, shining uniqueness. Thank you so much for the reminder and gentle exhortations too ~
