Bringing it back to the beginning
Who would have thought the place that I get my very first photo shoot done is at my birth home “Sunny Sheffield” Its was both an exciting an challenging time to be back home.
You can really see how much time has passed when you see babies grow into toddlers and toddlers into teenagers “eek”
I haven’t changed much on the outside but over the years I have sculptured and carved the young lady I am today! I am no longer the young girl that second guesses her thoughts or feelings. I create all the opportunities that are presented before me and I have learnt to take responsibilities cause ultimately;
“I am the master of self, every experience I engage in and every opportunity that is presented to me is created by me”
That is such a powerful thing to acknowledge, and truly connect with.
This is why having my pictures taken in Sheffield is very significant. For a very long time I have not been happy with my physical self and have made many excuses for not doing certain things in my life, due to the way I look and possibly feel. Forever making excuses “When I have more money, I’ll be able to buy…” ”Just a few more lbs weight loss, I’ll be sorted…” Looking back the day never came and I was never really satisfied.
So I did it, no fancy clothes or backgrounds it was me in-front of the Camera, it wasn’t easy to begin with but after a few home made liqueur hot chocolates I was well on my way …
Being photographed by Tamara Rogers is a sensational experience and I feel very blessed.
2012 is definitely showing the growth within me, lets celebrate confidence, change and transition within our lives daily.

…I want to break free, and truly be me
Being yourself is a personal decision
Someone may allow you to be yourself doesn’t mean you will take them up on the offer. People will allow you to be yourself if they like what you are dishing out, if they don’t like it that’s where unconditional love comes in or not, allowing,discussion, compromise on both sides, grace or deciding on relationship boundaries. At the end of the day it boils down to
Is it or the person really worth the effort?
Are my beliefs and values More important than a relationship that may go against them? Do I only want friends that don’t call me to love unconditionally? Loving unconditionally allows another to be themselves, if after that you don’t like what you see, hear or feel, then that relationship is not for ou unless your love covers over a multitude of sins
It is about compromise in the respect that someone may allow you freedom to be yourself warts and all, and in so allowing that they have some uncomfortable moments if you know that is the case you would compromise certain aspects of your behavior character out of love for the person not because you have to or are asked to but because you can take or leave that aspect of your personality and serve it up somewhere else, but your so called friend may not be so strong, fortunate or thick skinned,
The ideal compromise should be your choice made out of love for the other person. If you smoked but your partner didn’t what would you do when you wanted to light up, even though you know that they have given you freedom to do as you please?
Allowing someone to be themselves speeds up relationship development, “this is who you are I’m not here to change you but I choose not to be part of your life as I don’t think you will benefit me or I you.”
That is unconditional love also in part so what’s best and is unconditional love putting up and shutting up, or moving on?
What are your thoughts?

Hey there, and welcome!
Wow… it’s finally happened, an interactive website that can transform and transition through the many faces, stages and ages of my journey through life…
I am known by many for the endless stories I share, which are in fact my life experiences (the cats out of the bag now people!). These stories have always had a way of sparking something positive within a person, whether it be to make a change in their life or empower – it’s an endless chain reaction that travels from person to person.
I have been consistently told by close friends to write my unique adventures down. Now let there be no misunderstandings, my adventures/travels could be as simple as taking an alternative route to work – the magic is serendipity, synchronicity or even Intuition and the outcome or lesson has always been life changing… (more…)
