a year of self-portraits
because self-love is a courageous act
because only you know what you want
because creating a vision starts within yourself
because self-reliance is killing us
because we're so anxious
because i want to push myself
because I felt alone
because I want to connect
because i'm at peace when I create
because creating is the miracle of life
because i'm almost thirty
because i know i am timeless
because i am the ocean and the moon
because I move and am moved
because light is something to be played with
because i want to be seen
because i am worth the effort
because knowledge is in the act of
because i want to have fun
because life is always ending
just for it to be reborn
