I would like to dedicate 'Choices' to and for their support and just for being who they are.

Each and every one of us have to make choices, which will determine what path our lives will take. Quite often it is difficult to distinguish between the good choices and the bad ones because they can both look equally attractive and it is only when time lifts the curtain separating the present from the future that can we determine if our decisions were wise or unwise ones. This realisation can be as soon as a split second, minutes, hours or quite often years before we realise how one decision changed our life forever. We can choose to be a victim of our bad choices and be less of a person than we were meant to be or we can choose to learn from them and use the experience to make wiser ones in the future. Don't waste the sands in your hourglass, life is very short and is all about moving on and not constantly looking back with regret. Do I follow my own advice? I try to but fail miserably at times

Oh hun, I know you appreciate everything I fav and I know how long it takes to get through to everyone. You don't have to say thank you to me every time I fav something. I know you appreciate your peers taking and expressing their joy in your pieces...so NO WORRIES!

a wonderful image. I like the way so many elements are used in such a subtle way. The stars and light effect are just enough to give the picture a lift, but not in your face and ott.
