Self Portrait Tuesday #2: Reflective Surface
MULTIPLE ME
I think my family used to think I was a few cards short of a deck, as a teenager and into my 20's my emotions would swing radically. If I saw a sad movie I wouldn't just cry a little in the theater, I would cry all the way home, then go in my room and cry some more. I could go from happy to sad in the blink of an eye. I used to define myself in my head as an emotional basketcase, I felt like something was wrong with me, I was too emotional. I'm still a crier but I don't define myself by that now, at least I don't put a negative spin on it anymore. I am emotional, I love a good cry, but I also love laughing and getting angry, and feeling peaceful. I am not a wreak, just a girl who feels fully, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Hi Heather, from another Heather. You have a wonderful family, and I have enjoyed looking at your tuesday photos. I love that you embrace all of your emotions. Well done.
amazing picture!!! and I cry watching commercials and movie trailers!!! and I believe there's nothing with wrong with that at all!!!
"a girl who feels fully"....I LOVE that!
that is great that you recognize and accept that in yourself now...
i was also an "emotional basketcase"
as a child...its funny how you don't change, but you do...
You know, the older I get, the less "afraid" I am of my emotions. I think that they actually make me feel more alive!
LOVE the photo. Crying is good! I cry to accompany MOST of my emotions. I think of it as a wonderful release...sort of a liquid "Ahhhh..." :)
So creative this photo!
wow you describe me!
