The Empress' New Clothes I have been going through some transformations recently - things that made me question my own intuitions. Is what am I searching for too high of a bar, too far away from reality, and a mere fantasy? But even so, does it stop me from seeking it? Have I exhausted all of my options? Often times we let the environment define our values, and we work so hard towards those values. But the real values need to come from within ourselves. What makes you, you? What are your super powers? The stronger those internal callings are, more the reason we need to listen, and be attuned to them. I must defend my own lights. "You cannot convince people to love you. This is an absolute rule. No one will ever give you love because you want him or her to give it. Real love moves freely in both directions. Don't waste your time on anything else. Most things will be okay eventually, but not everything will be. Sometimes you'll put up a good fight and lose. Sometimes you'll hold on really hard and realize there is no choice but to let go. Acceptance is a small, quiet room" -- Tiny Beautiful Things Model: @denisastrakovaofficial Crown and Jewelry Designer: @namikoabloom Photography: @jajasgarden #theempororsnewclothes #empress #artisticnude #artisticnudephotograpghy #queen #portraitphotography #portrait_universe #royalportrait #fairytalephotography #fineartphotography #seattlephotographer #fantasyphtography #silverhair #fineartnude (at The Ruins Seattle) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2nuhtwAOPi/?igshid=164o0mhjdxuol
