Enlighten Me

"Our lives are like a candle in the wind" -

A beautiful quote written by Carl Sandburg. 

To me, the most important message conveyed from this phrase is that the wind has the power to blow you out at any moment in time. However, this does not mean that you will merely disappear forever. I have learnt that life is what you make of it. 

Leave your mark behind and spread the candlelight.

This is an image I like to call "the track to no where". 
I am desperately trying to lead myself to somewhere other than nowhere. I am in my second year of studying psychology at university and, although I love it, I am not sure as of yet where it will take me, but I guess that's the fun of it right? 

This blog is all about finding out about who I really am as an individual. I am aiming to do this through my art, my photography (which I enjoy, but am not all that great at) and my writing. Searching for things that inspire me will motivate me to do the things that I am scared to do. 

I see my life as an opportunity to make a change and I am hopeful that one day I will.
