Half way there!

Melissa and Me

yep, that's me! it seems by posting this
picture i am half way over my "photo fear"
this picture is not so much about all seeing
me, it is more for me, to get over my fear
and believe in me entirely!

i am a strong believer in my beliefs, i have
always stood by what i say, or write, i am
outspoken, yet understanding, and try
not be judgmental

i always tell people to write what they feel
believe in yourself, as if you believe in you
then all will believe the same, if i say this
than i must do for myself as well

photos of myself have never been my
favorite, i guess its the idea of me looking
back at me, and saying "yep thats me"
its like reality, staring right at you

my family knows this "photo fear" i have,
they live it all the time, when family
photos are taken, they always know i try to
go in the back and put everyone in front of me

so my nephew put me to the test, he
situated me with melissa (his girlfriend)
and asked her to get real close, when i felt
her besides me, my heart grew and i smiled
and knew that it would be ok!

he saw the picture thru the camera and
said "perfect" he was so right, what amazes
me the most is my nephew at the age of 25
gets me! totally understands me! and carries
me thru!

so there you have it!

me in my backyard, reality!

almost there, yes i am :O)

special thank you too
♥♥Vincent and Melissa♥♥
much love always!
