Wow, dreamy. Has a modern fairy-tale twisty kind of feel. Just a wee bit quirky, which to me makes it ever so interesting to look at.

It's difficult to separate what I thought at the time.. and what I see now. It's very me. I'm quite 'dramatic'...according to my husband and others. At the time I felt confused, emotionally raped and not sure what to do. I recall printing two photos together... but can't recall the 2nd one.. the one with the arm surrounding me.. and hand touching.

Well, kind of. Seems like in my life there is always a new decision to be made... and not time enough to gather my senses and self and become whole. sigh... But there are,of course, times of happiness and joy as well.

I know I have very few moments when I feel a calmness and that I am one with myself. Very fleeting and as I get older when that moment strikes I hold like a piece of fragile glass. I treasure those moments...
