"You stand up for what you believe in, even if it gets you in the way of what others think..."

My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

where ever you are~




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


emanate
let us see your lightFaerwillow

wishing you all a glorious weekend ahead

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

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.

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!

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

Lauren said...

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!

Ces Adorio said...

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.

Melissa B. said...

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...

Barry said...

FW-such great autumn colours in contrast with the rich greens and stunning light. B

Unknown said...

one for my brain cells to ponder.

beautiful images as always.

Jo said...

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 ~
