I Love Taking Gorgeous Pictures!

Photography is one of my many loves.  I'm not a professional, I just love taking pictures that make people feel beautiful.  I've got a family so, I support my income in various ways.  Like Dolly Levi said in Hello Dolly:  "If you have to live from hand to mouth, you better be ambidextrous!"

My mom used to sing this song when I was a girl.  Everytime I listen to this, I can still hear her.  Enjoy!

Love!

One amazing thing that I thought of was that just because you're not in a relationship, doesn't mean no one loves you.  The love you have from your family and friends is real and deep. Don't discount this love, just because it's not romantic love.

The ancient Greeks were so clever.  They recognized that love varies and has so many different facets.

Agape - selfless love. Expects nothing in return
Eros - romantic love
Philia - friendship
Storge - natural love - love parent has for their children.

Now that you understand the different types of love, go show yourself how much you love....you!
