Through the Darkness: The Journey That Lies Ahead

The Journey That Lies Ahead

A couple days ago I saw a deal that the New York Institute of Photography was going to have this Thursday...a one day deal. When I first saw it I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't going to be for when I originally wanted to sign up next year. After giving it some thought and talking with my dad, I decided it was just too great an offer to pass up. So I am now enrolled in the professional photography course through NYIP!! I am so extremely excited! I must admit that I am very scared and nervous. I have always been so afraid of failure...I don't know what I'd do if I just wasn't good enough. I know that this is going to be a challenge, but I am going into it with the mind to make it through doing the very best I can and become the professional photographer that I so desire to be. I am hoping by this time next year I can be finished with this course. I get to begin as soon as they send me my materials!

Woo-hoo! Failure is simply motivation to redo it right. No one gets everything right the first time they try it, but most everyone can get it if they have a chance to do it again with better instruction/information.

You are naturally talented with a camera and you have what is called an "eye" for composition. You go, girl!!

The rainy Day

The day is cold, and dark, and dreary;It rains, and the wind is never weary;The vine still clings to the mouldering wall,But at every gust the dead leaves fall,And the day is dark and dreary.My life is cold, and dark, and dreary;It rains, and the wind is never weary;My thoughts still cling to the mouldering past,But the hopes of the youth fall thick in the blast,And the days are dark and dreary.Be still, sad heart! and cease repining;Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;Thy fate is the common fate of all,Into each life some rain must fall,Some days must be dark and dreary.~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

The Lords Way

Isaiah 55:8-11~For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

Wings as Eagles

Isaiah 40:28-31~Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint.
