Love, Art, Freedom


A Perfect world, a perfect me.

Love- Art - Freedom ( Me in 3 Words)

Many times I find myself reflecting a lot on who I am, what I am here for and what is it that I really would like out of life. All the time I’m proud to say the answer is always the same. I want love, freedom and art in my life.  
Briefly about myself, I am one of those seemingly shy people, not out of shyness per say but it takes a while for me to warm up to people, I like to analyse people first before I let them into my life. It gives me a sense of control. I love music more especially hip hop and the tranquil and distant sounds of jazz. 
Growing up I wanted to be a range of things, from fashion designer to vet, to choreographer to a business woman mainly focusing in tourism industry to a jewellery designer a fashion photographer as well as a magazine editor. (Whew!) Funny enough, I still want to achieve all this. (Except being a vet)
Right now I work in a quiet office my job dwindling between admin and office manager (and whatever else I can handle) I would love to wake up one day, stretch my arm and greet the warmth of the sun, kiss my lover good morning, put my slippers on, and go make breakfast for I and my lover and head on over to the study/ office downstairs and turn on the Mac and review the pics I shot at an editorial yesterday. I want to wake up to my love, my freedom and art. If each day could promise me that, that will be my perfect world.
The biggest stumbling block to mankind is themselves, the perceptions we form, the expectations we impose on ourselves, and the perceived expectations of others from us when they have not said anything at all. What does it take for one to grasp fully to whom they are and what they stand for?
As I am in pursuit of my freedom, with the help of my love whom has been with me at low times I hope to find a greater love and find the missing art in my life.
