I've been on a personal journey for two years. A frustrating, emotional, and unsuccessful one. I've tried so many different ways to reach my goal with only sadness and heartbreak meeting me at the end of each road.
Today I am shaking off the old and starting fresh. I'm leaving behind the pain and negative thoughts. I have a different plan, I am following a new path. I will push through each day. Hope has found me again and I won't let it go.

What an amazing image you have created. It says many words through silence. Thank you for sharing so openly. I will lift you in prayer right now.

paper thin, as it seems you are saying you feel.
i send you healing thoughts. my path has been mired with brambles too.
i hope you find your shining light.
Wonderful picture! I've been on a similar journey these past few years. So frustrating. I've just written a draft post today about it and about a project I want to do to help me change things. Must be something special in the air or the stars this week :). Wishing you all the best on your new path!
Good for you. Great photo by the way
I love your art.
beautiful photo. the transparency of the image breathes right into the transparency, honesty, and raw vulnerability of your words. just beautiful.
here's to hope and new beginnings...
Lovely and compelling self portrait and thought provoking words. Thank you for sharing so freely. It takes guts to begin a new journey. Never give up!
Such a good picture. It looks like you are rising out of yourself!
Here's to new beginnings for you!
Here's to the inspiration you have given me to begin my journey through selfies! It is pushing me, I am loving it and I am learning so much along the way!

Beautiful, ethereal photo. I wish you luck on your journey x
You go girl! Life is meant to be lived... face each day with courage, hope and joy in the moment.
Love your photo this week. Cheers to new beginnings! Thanks for linking up again.
You didn't tell us what you're shaking off and I will encourage you in shaking it off. A plethora of curve balls have been thrown our way in the last couple years. I am beginning anew also. Endeavor to persevere.
such a beautiful image for your moving words. sending you warm thoughts and wishes for your new beginning.
You are a strong and creative woman Christy -- I have lots of faith that you'll succeed in your new endeavors. :)
I am sorry to hear things have felt tough, hope your new path goes well for you
How did you pull this fabulous shot off? I have my iPhone but do not know where to begin. It is obvious from the picture that you are not holding it in your hands. I early do love this shot. It is beautiful and so unique. Kudos. genie
Beautiful photo!!
Oh Christy, I'm thinking of you and rooting for you as you embark on your new path. Hold on to that hope. Sending lots of love and support your way...
Beautiful photo and quote. Your previous post grabbed me as well. Self-portraiture scares me to pieces. Perhaps all this inspiration will motivate me to move beyond that.
Love and light to you on your new path.
Your selfies show more and more-of the outside, as well as what's inside.
Sounds like you've been in a hard place, a struggle. I hope that the new hope you've found will be buoyed along with energy, enough so that even when it slips, it can reignite the next day.
Hugs.
Good for you....your strength shines through.
Great photo!
Hugs

Sometimes letting go like that is the way to find what you are looking for...great attitude for a fresh beginning. I do think though that over the last while your photography has transformed and I'm loving what you are doing (like with this shot) so that something great that came out of the low, eh?
Wishing the best for you!
And just saw pioneer woman's picks...CONGRATS!!
Such a wonderful dream-like piece, U.M...
I hope you never keep dreaming!
It's inspiring!
:)
Love you photo! This really hits home with me because I'm kind of doing the same thing for my beginning. Good luck with the process and I look forward to joining you on your journey.
It sounds like a wonderful path to be on!
This is a beautiful image.
What a fantastic photo! And best of luck on your jouney:)
wow! good luck with whatever new path you on!
Stunning photo! I'm sure you will find your way with your new plan, but don't be so hard on yourself!
Beautiful photo!
Have faith..
