Peace, Love and 2013!

On December 31, 2011 I was wrapping up my 365 project,glad to have it completed and amazed at the number of photos I actually took each and every day of the year. At times during that project, I felt like the chronicling of days was snail-pace slow, and at at other times the days whirled on by.

 In 2012 I didn't shoot as many photos, and at one point my digital SLR was shelved as part of my subconscious attempt to protect myself from being vulnerable.

Thankfully my big girl camera and I are still the best of friends and my love for photography has been reignited through the love and encouragement of many friends and family members.

In all years, we experience ups and downs. Sometimes a particular year may have a few more bumps, bruises and kick-you-in-the-teeth type moments than in other years, but it is how we respond in those moments that ultimately defines who we are.

  In 2012, I had some really amazing ups and some really trying downs. Through it all the one constant has been in my relationship with God and my faith in Him. He's always there with me on the road of life in everything I do. He's always there with YOU too on your journey in everything you do. That is the one thing I know for sure, and the one thing that has, does, and forever will sustain me and bring me great peace, love and joy in my life here on Earth.

 As we say good-bye to 2012 and look forward to a New Year, I wish you many blessings. And may all of you also find,
