You or them?

What do you do if you feel like you can't say what you need to say?  When you just need to get something out and let it be known.  But you know if you do then it will potentially start an argument, or insinutate something completely off from what you were intending?  I want to be true to me and speak my mind because that's just what I do.  Why am I more afraid to speak my mind now that I'm older?  I was less afraid 3, 4, even 5 years ago.  Why is that?  I'm less independent, less confident, less strong, less everything.  I don't understand.  I'll have moments where I'm so proud and happy, and then I'm just so down.  Nearly depressed.  I don't know how to fix it.  I pray to find my happiness, to be strong..

I just want to find my way.

Inspiration

To this day, this photo shoot done of Ashley Olsen in a 2009 issue of Marie Claire is still one of my favorites.  She is utterly stunning.

It isn't just the fact that she is undeniably beautiful, but the styling and editing of this shoot is still just as inspiring as it was since I first opened the pages.

It's soft and sensual, like you two are hanging out together in her bedroom.

It's one of those issues that I just can't throw away.
