My Foolish Fotography

Walk with quiet feet and touch with gentle hands for the world is already

much too loud and hard.

love letter. 

crumple up a piece of paper.

roll it up into a ball.

- that's pain. 

now do your best to unravel it again.

try to flatten all of the creases.

~ that's your scars. 

hold it up to the light and show it

to somebody else who is struggling.

~ that's vulnerability. 

give your piece of paper to God

even if your hands are trembling.

~ that's surrender.

read his love letter written in gold

across every wrinkle.

~ that's your worth.

A secret to happiness is letting every situation be what it is instead of what you think it should be and making the best of it.

"That's a beautiful little life you have there",

"Thanks I made it! It has pockets, for all

my treasures."

“I would imagine there are days when Superman wakes up, glances at his cape, and wonders when someone will come save him.”  ~Tyler Knott Gregson#EverydayPeople #MyFoolishFotography

“I am at the edge of tomorrow. At the beginning of now. At the precipice of forever. Holding my impatient breath.”

~T. Greenwood

Simply Being 

Softly, gently, I remind myself ~

I am allowed to just be. 

Not reaching, 

not proving, 

not chasing the next thing.

Just existing in the fullness of who I am.

The sunlight still kisses my skin when I pause. 

The wind still dances through my hair when I

slow down.

Life still embraces me, even when I am still.

There is beauty in being.

And that is enough.

Is this seat taken? 

Or can aching grief sit next

to laughing life? 

They're old friends, and

won't mind

how close they'll have to be

Elbows bumping

and touching at the knee

~Jessica Ardis

Accept me for 

who I am or 

let me be. 

Love me or don't, 

but don't make 

me feel unworthy 

because I don't 

match your 

expectations 

of who I should be. 

I am myself, 

and I am happy that way.#MyFoolishFotography

There's something beautiful

About adventurous souls 

Lost in a world they will never fit in

They are strange and untamed 

They don't need others to feel loved

They run free like wild horses

And bloom blissfully in solitude

In places not expected to thrive. 

They are fierce like stars

Surrounded with darkness

They glow with pride.

the goal is to laugh forever with someone you take serious.

"...How do you get through?" 

Sometimes you don't survive whole, 

you just survive in part. 

But the grandeur of life is that attempt. 

It's not about that solution. 

It is about being as fearless as one can, 

and behaving as beautifully as one can, 

under completely impossible circumstances.

I believe I know the only cure  

to decorate one's inner house 

so richly that one is content there, 

glad to welcome anyone who wants 

to come and stay, but happy all the same

when one is inevitably alone.

~Edith Wharton

"Life is a shipwreck.

but we must not forget

to sing in the lifeboats."

~Voltaire

Oh what we find,

when we stop searching. 

Oh what we feel,

when we stop forcing. 

Oh what we receive,

when we stop fearing. 

Oh what we become,

when we just love.
