Follow your heart. (Never give up)

Just throwing it out there. I deal with depression but I fight through it every day. Every day it's a struggle but I'll never let it stop me from doing what I truly love, photography. If anything photography is what gets me through the day most of the time. I thought that I would be graduated from school by now but for some reasons things kept coming up; obstacles keep getting in my way along my journey. I feel like life throws us obstacles for a reason, to help us grow. I've learned so much in the past few years about myself alone as well as for my passion.  Things do get to me a lot but I will not let them stop me. Yes it'll slow me down but nothing will stop me from becoming a successful photographer. Photography is, was and will be my life. I don't care how long it takes me to work on perfecting this career but I will succeed. I'm not giving myself any choice. No matter how many obstacles I face or how many times I may even feel like a failure; I will succeed in the long haul. I'm going to keep trying no matter how hard it gets because this is my life and no one is going to live it for me.I'm not exactly sure where I wanted this to go when I started to write but right now I hope that reading this somehow strengthens your own will to never give up on what you want to do whether it be photography, videography, photo rep, graphic design artist or what ever you may want to do, do not ever give up. Find the strength you need to and fight through each day.


Upstate NY is one of my favorite places to take photographs when those kinds of moods hit home.

  1. Thank you for throwing the post out there. It was a nice toss. I've read it over a few times. I hope your depression decides to pack its bags and travel out to the North Pole. It'll warm up once it settles in, hopefully... Maybe, the Clauses would bring over some festive sugar cookies and warm milk to welcome it. A touch of warmth brightens up anything; and anyone. If not, then maybe a warm meal and a good drink could raise the heat a bit, surely. Let it take care of itself. Then you'd gain the momentum to really rocket forward! And take some of the awesome-est photos out there! Build the momentum. It's the fuel for the long haul. You've already succeeded!

    Also, thank you. Thank you for writing this. It rekindled my resolve. I'm not giving up.
