Description
After many, many alterations, and a lot of thinking about what my inner visions were, I think I finally came up with something that proves there's actually something in my mind beside blank space! This is a nightmare I have had only once, but it's also something I am constantly thinking about: getting pregnant. I realize that millions of other women think about that as well, but this is my biggest inner fear. So, enjoy my fear!Oh, and this was done for *FrozenStarRo 's current contest , entitled "Inner Visions".
_________________________
WOW. One of the prizes for getting 3rd place in the contest (which I did- can't believe I never put that little tidbit here before!) was a poem by the VERY talented :devhidden-caitastrophe:-- please read the following:
I dream of you, my child:
Dream every detail 'till
I know you are my own.
My gaze lingers on your eyes:
Mine, soft and golden,
Serious in your small face.
For a moment, my fingers
Brush aside your hair-
Spun sunlight haloes your head.
In an instant, I can feel
I have loved you
For years and years.
But why the fear
Flickering across your face-
My son, my future?
Why, in all my dreaming,
Do I never stand
There beside you?

This is a really nice piece. Everything fits together nicely and is very dreamlike. I can completely relate, by the way [it's terrifying to me, for some reason].

Thank you so much! I'm glad someone else can bravely admit that they understand where I'm coming from. Usually when I bring up that fear, people say, "but.. you're a woman- why don't you just use protection or wait for the right time?" Just because I'm a woman doesn't mean I can't fear it.

Oh, you're absolutely right- and I can definitely say that sitting at home for 8 hours creating a photomanip is infinitely more enjoyable than spending 8 hours at my job!

Why would you have a fear of getting pregnant? I understand that it's something you don't want at this point in time, but why do you classify it under fear? Besides, isn't that what contraception is for?
Putting aside all that, this is really cool. I'm so envious that you got it to do that light thing. I can never get photoshop to work for me like that. T__T
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Heh, well, it took forEVER to get Photoshop to cooperate.
And you're right- it's not a fear for everyone, but even with contraception I'm always afraid of it happening. Later on in life that fear will most likely drain away and I'll be waiting impatiently to get pregnant. For now though, it's a very real thing for me.

I like the flowing sheets and the sun rays. I like how everything is out in the open--where it probably shouldn't be; its like a cool dreamlike feeling. Many people have dreams of having children (women mostly lol) and then it happens.

Urrgh, well, I hope that's not the case with me. 
Thank you very much for the lovely comment- that sheet always makes me sleepy to look at it.

When I have seen this dev, I have understood that not there is history. Too much beautiful and much evocative one. The part that I prefer is that one of the cloth moved from the wind and then the light, indeed one "Inner Vision"
It compliments and good fortune for the contest 
P.S.: Excuse for my imperfect English
