This year has been quite the struggle for me. I haven't been able to focus on my craft as much as others have. Finance has been a question to me for awhile now. Things just seem to pop up when I think things are gonna get better. I'm not sure what it is about all this shit that I'm dealing with right now.
I have so many things that I want to finish that have to be on hold at the moment. This struggle of trying to keep things together is definitely wearing me down. I don't know what to do and how I'm going to do it, but being in situations like these force me to take things up a notch. I don't like to look for shit like this, but hey... this is what it is I suppose.
I'm only hoping that if I get that break I will do my best to help others who need it. Because I know that more people have been through worse than I have, but I just can't help but feel this way. I sometimes think that things will only get worse. But hey... that's life right?
As I continue to create more work and write out ideas I've become somewhat "normal" in being active in the arts. Though that I've been active here and there it hasn't been full throttle like it's been over the last few weeks. Drawing plans and figuring out new approaches on posting on this blog has been a bit of a challenge. Honestly most people have already given up writing and posting online. Their outlets are usually Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook. I could understand Instagram being a platform for photographers to post, but Facebook and Twitter? No thank you. I never once considered Facebook promoting.
And that's another thing that I've come to realize. Blogger hasn't been a great platform for bloggers in years and it has already been deemed somewhat "dead" in the eyes of the internet public. But I'm not so sure if that's the case for me here. I've grown to use this thing quite a bit and I don't know if that's a bad thing lol. I don't plan on moving anywhere, but I do plan on changing this place up a bit. There's certainly going to be some construction here, but that will have to wait in the coming year.
So drawing up plans, posting more images and writing out more ideas for this blog. I want to go full throttle again like I did in 2012 when I had to do my 365 Project. That was a crazy year for me gotta tell you. Making sure that these images are posted before 12 midnight was a challenge some days. But you know it really told me how much photography meant to me. I didn't think I would last and here I am still posting shit.
I can't wait for what happens next year. It's really going to go full throttle now that Donald Trump is our President :(
