NOTE TO SELF: Learn to Give Love, Not Exchange it!

Somethings I find myself hurt and angry because some of the people that I loved, the same people that said they loved me, don’t show it in any way!  These are people that I have gone way out of my way to try to help in anyway that I could.  When they had problems with their health, their boyfriends/girlfriends/husbands/wives, I was there for them.  When they wanted to develop a portfolio, but had no clue how to make it happen and/or didn’t have the money to do it.  When they didn’t have money in their pocket of food in their pantry.  I was there for them.  Now I see them on line, or in passing and they don’t have anything to say.  I guess they are “good” now.  Maybe their priorities have changed.  Maybe I did something to piss them off.  Or maybe they have just “grown.”

In any event, the problem is mine, not theirs because when I love, I expect to be loved in return.  NOTE TO SELF: STOP IT STUPID!!! If you are going to love, give your love away and don’t expect it to be returned.  If you give something expecting to receive something in return, is that really giving, or is it trading???  Remember, God loves us so much that He gave His only son knowing that we would kill Him!!! But he did it anyway.  God loves all of us, but we all don’t love Him back but He still wakes us all up every morning.  He still loves even though we don’t always retune that love.  So, learn from you experiences, and lear how to continue to love, but be more selective regarding the people you allow in your inner circle. #SafePeople  You can love someone without doing everything you can to help them.  Just keep it moving and make better choices in the future!

This shot is just nice!!! I’m sorry, but it is!

I really loved the way this photo turned out. I love all the black with the red highlights. I love the energy that Lady gives in this shot. She is beautiful, there is no denying that! I didn’t take the shot with this end result in mind. I knew that I wanted the energy from the model and I knew that I loved the beautiful black Cadi with the University of Louisville accents, but that was about it. The rest just evolved during the post production editing work. I wasn’t sure were I was going but I trusted myself enough to go there. In most cases when both the model and I give a shot our best, then good things happen.  I am very pleased with the results. Lesson learned, Trust Yourself!
