So my wish for my birthday is that something lift me up, I want to be my own hero but how can I be?
Until next time,
Sad Stephanie H.
As today marks my 29th birthday, the day has been a rollercoaster of emotions mostly happy that is until I came home. Well back anyways a house isn't a home when you're constantly being yelled at. Even the yelling doesn't take a holiday. I just want to be the 29 year old adult I have grown to be, but I can't do that living where I am, and the bad part is that I can't afford to live anywhere else. I know I am always this positive person who is always giving advice (some of which I wish I could take myself) but today I feel like the lowest of lows and I don't know if I can get out of it.
So my wish for my birthday is that something lift me up, I want to be my own hero but how can I be? Until next time, Sad Stephanie H.

Last night I pulled another late night uploading pictures I had taken earlier that day to a website that reviews and then post them for people to buy. I felt really good as I had upload 10 of my best photos in the hopes that at least 1 would be accepted giving me some hope in my freelance photography career.
When I woke up this morning, I first checked my e-mail and saw that I had indeed received one from that company. My heart skipped a beat but upon opening the e-mail the skip quickly turned into a sinking feeling as all my photos had been rejected. Their reason "These photos do not meet our community standards." They did however give me the option to upload more sets of photos but it got me thinking of how many people would have taken that rejection and given up. How many awesome photos is the world missing out on just because of websites like this. So my message to you is DON'T GIVE UP!!!!! Just because you get rejected by one company does not mean your work isn't any good, just change your view and your perspective and keep fighting because the world deserves to see what you create. Find your avenue!!! Until next time, Stephanie H. What would you do if your biggest fear came true? Would you run? Or would you face it head on and then look back and say "is that all you got?"
Would you curl up and cry yourself to sleep? My answer would probably be all of the above. See just like with grief, fear too is a multiple stage process, first you're afraid of what could happen. Then you face it and what you do next play's out how the final outcome will look. You can hit the ground running or you can hit the ground stumble and fall and then pick yourself up and dust yourself off. I tend to lean on the clumsy side of dusting myself off after crying my eyes out, curled up on my bed with a pint of Ben & Jerry's. My point to this post is that no matter what whether you hit the ground running after facing your fear or you have to pick yourself up and mend the pieces you will have conquered your fear and that my dear is something to be very very proud of. Until next time, Stephanie H. |
