I haven't shared this image yet with anyone other than my mentor. It came from a  challenge she gave me to learn to be ok with myself, to seek what is deep inside of me. I had a series of emotional images come from that challenge and this was by far my favorite. I learned a lot about myself that day. Perhaps at some point I'll be ready to share some of it.

You are very beautiful. Congratulations on being a winner this week. You didn't really need to officially win though to be a winner. I think you were a winner the minute you took a chance and posted this.

Outstanding.

WOw...thank you both...I am blown away by your kindness.
I am very happy with 6th place. of course, i'd be thrilled with first lol. But I am totally honored to even be considered 'up there'. I do believe sometime soon I will be sharing the story behind this image. I think with the wonderful support I have received from total strangers, I can put myself out there again and give people the rest of the story.

Thank you thank you! for all the kind words!
