Weeds

Somedays I just don't know how I'll do it.....
I don't know how I'm supposed to work a 9 to 5 job, be a good wife, become a mother, handle the hormones of pregnancy, and somehow figure out how to be a photographer.
There are days that I think, just give up on this dream. The road is too long and hard.
But I'm reminded of a photo I took a couple of weeks ago, while testing out the awesome zoom lense that Kristen had rented, I took a photo of some weeds.
Kristen was apalled, Christa....why are you taking photos of weeds?
My response....I'm just trying out the lense Kristen!
But truthfully, I thought they looked pretty. I just loved how the yellow stood out against the green grass.
So today even as I am discouraged and having self doubt of the dream that is yet too be. I'll find the good in the situation. The beauty in the weeds if you will. I love photography and even though I know I have a bumpy road ahead, I'm not giving up. This is just the beginning of great things to come. I just have to see the beauty :)
Til next time, C

Aw, thanks for the "plug". It wouldn't have happened if your weeds hadn't inspired me, thanks!
