This is who I am in my head…in my mind…in my heart, a carefree meadow-dwelling creature but…what does that even mean? Who is this girl in the photo? Does she have a job?
Is it her dream job? Or is she working for $8.50 an hour, rearranging the same pile of clothes for 6 hours? Is she trying to pay off credit cards while still saving to make her dreams come true? What are her dreams? Who took this photo?
Was she out alone with a tripod and remote or was this whole thing her photographer boyfriend/best friend’s idea? Where was this photo taken?
Was she taking her daily walk in the field near her house when the light was just right? or was it really cold, bleak and damp so in the post processing she warmed up the tones with a filter? Why does any of this matter? Why do we compare our lives to editorials and crucify ourselves because we think we’ve been found wanting? Are we over-dreaming and over-thinking? Is the problem that we dream too much instead of working to make our reality what we want it? It’s much easier to dream isn’t it? What is your ideal reality?
HOW ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE IT HAPPEN?
