Things I like to PhotoGraph and the Wonderful # 7

Just a few places my FEET have been

So many places to see..

Oh, what Crackle Finish can do !

Another Found Piece, I painted and distressed to look old !

I have a LOVE affair with old Finials !

This one wasn't OLD, until I painted it to look OLD !

It's Perfect ! With these CUTE little flowers leaning on the POST !

FounD ObJeCts

I Found this wood at the Ocean,I painted , sanded and distress it

Some of my Creations

A Rose is A Rose

The saying... A rose is a rose..Is so true.

If we look inside and allow the healing.
We will find ourselves again.
And the Beauty that may have been crushed or locked inside ..it will emerge and bloom.

A rose , by any other name is still a ROSE !!

   Tonight I Rested and Gazed at The Sky...
   I Pondered The Way, Birds Must Learn How To FLY..


   Its The Reason I Need TRIAL and Error..IN My Life
   To Understand how ..
   To Gather UP Courage and ...
    Let Myself Soar
   To Have No Fear and Just Let it Go..


   Mistakes I Make Can Be Lessons In Life..


Like How to Turn Clouds Into Something To Ride
Enjoying My Journey.... I Look For Silver Linings, Inside..


As I Watched the changes that came with each Breeze..
I Realized the Clouds Faced Bending with Ease..


The Birds Rode the Wind ..not Fighting their FLIGHT..
They Proved To Be More than a Fantastic Sight..


An Inspiration For Changing and Growing
And Trying New Things..
Right Then and There , I Closed Out that Chapter of Living in Fear..


So Goodnight Sweet Summer Sky..You've Taught Me So Much...

You are There Everyday to Give Me A Gift....
I'm Glad I Looked Up and Didn't Pass By
The Opportunity Waiting ..
To Teach Me To Fly !

GooDNiTe Sweet SuMMeR SanD

 ...I have A Strange Little Habit..
      When I Visit the Sea..



    I insist On
   Photographing My Feet..


     It Helps to Remind Me


    That I Have Been there
        and Can always
         Go Back...


..It's just As Simple As Looking at a Photograph..


Where My Feet have Been..My Mind Can Return..


So Goodnight For NOW...Sweet Summer Sand..
And
Perhaps Next Time ...I Will Photograph ...My Hand !

"WORRY IS JUST THE FEAR OF DISSAPOINTMENT"
-Joyce Meyer

GooGLe asked Me 4 a ShoRt Bio..This was my resPonse..

A ShoRt BiO from ME would be impoSSible. I was born TALKING and when I was not talking ..I was SINGING ! I am stiLL the same after all these years ! And I am finally OK with that...

When I was growing up..I thought my name was SHUT UP SUZIE..not just Suzie...

I am going to INVADE the world with this stuff

This feels pretty darn GOOD...
I am DONE with my tears..
Its like a Growing Spurt..
There is a RELEASE happening..
Its time to unleash the Creativity Beast
that lurks inside and hides under my FEARs...
and use the GIFTs God gave me...
This is like learning to get to KNOW me.
To introduce the Little Girl who wanted to be FREE as a BIRD
to the WOMAN who can make it HAPPEN..

LooK out world.......here I COME !
