I Finally Figured it Out

It took me 32 years but I finally decided what to do with my life: photography. I kinda went through my skills. I'm not mechanically inclined and by the time I learn all the updates would be every 2 years so I would be close to 40 before I got certified. Pretty much, I'm good at writing and I've gotten really good at taking photos lately. It's always been a hobby of mine, nothing exciting, just snapshots, mainly when I go to races/concerts. But thanks to having Instagram on my phone, it's really helped me get the "eye" that photographers have.

For the longest time it always felt like my dreams/goals/hopes/dreams/future was out of reach. It was like, I always knew what I wanted to do w/my life, but I never knew how to go out there and get it. And I decided that if I'm going to want this, I'm going to go out there and get it! I'm saving up a little bit of each paycheck and put it in my accout, and my goal is within the next year to have a really nice new camera and start taking photography classes. I even have a name picked out: Still life photo. Everyone LOVES the name. It's a play off my name, and it fits perfectly.

I'm at a point in my life, I can't just drag my feet and be doing what I'm doing forever. I wish I would have came up with this decision like a decade ago, but I also know I'm not getting younger and if I WANT to have a career I need to go out and make it happen. No more putting things off!

I really feel God laid this desire on my heart and I want to use my newfound skill for His glory and use it to somehow expand the Kingdom. I'm excited to get this yet-to-be-written chapter of my life started, and hopefully make a successful career out of it, God willing!
