Well, since I have started learning how this site operates, I feel it is only necessary to explain my purpose on this great site.

An evident passion of mine is photography. I actually have a camera within a minutes reach every moment of every day. Though I don't take a picture unless there is a beautiful moment to capture, or an intention that causes my attention.

Most of my photography will be of nature or people. I am pondering whether I am going to start to post some artistically nude photos for the sake of intertwining a message within them.

I have a fascination with a deeper reality. I see a picture and wonder the different ways it could be interpreted. When searching through the contributions of others, I tend to prefer the beauties of nature, philosophy, and that of the human body.

I am not one who interprets the human body to be something to be ashamed of. My opinion is that we should embrace our outer and inner beauty and make it evident to those around us. Something that always bothers me is when women, as men don't usually make it out to be much, thrive on believing they are not skinny or beautiful enough for others.

If you are over three hundred pounds and are not incredibly tall, I don't believe you are fat. You may have bigger hips, a stomach that sticks out a bit, larger breasts than you see fit, but that is what makes you so special. I do not mean this in a condescending manner. I say this because the ones who truly care about you, the ones who see your radiating inner beauty, will not have much preference on how your body looks.

As a matter of personal preference, there is nothing wrong with having a few extra pounds. In all honesty, I actually think it is unhealthy to be so skinny that you are a size three or less unless your genetics caused you to be that way.

Ladies, just stop reading those stupid magazines, watching those shows, or listening to other who tell you are not beautiful, skinny, or sexy enough to be who you are. Take pride in who you are and enjoy what you have to the fullest.



There you have it, my first of many journal entries.

I hope you liked it and you come to enjoy my thoughts, photography, and opinions.

Thank you,
