Description
Softness Becomes You by Maggie Terlecki
All my life, I've been a sensitive person, some would say too soft-hearted. How many times have I heard things such as, Maggie, you should be like a good French bread, soft on the inside and a good hard crust on the exterior. I've found that hard to do.
After so much, time, I realize I will probably not change and that it suits me. Working on this image made me feel that strongly today. A lesson long in the learning. It's okay and who I am and I should love who I am.
I hope you like this flower with this post that shows it both soft yet strong and bold. You can be both. :-) Maggie

You be ever proud of who you are and let no one EVER take away the peace of mind that softness and tenderness and caring affords you. And don't ever stop your photography!
Maggie Terlecki replied:
Thank you so much, René. It's been a long journey and most of my life I've been made to feel that it was a weakness. I just don't want to pretend that I'm strong and nothing can shake me, I'm now starting to see that this may be my strength. Thank you for all your kindness :-) Maggie

Wonderful Peony portrait, Maggie, and a very true statement!

Beautifully composed and edited, loved your comments and musings just as much, there is nothing softer or stronger than water, changing constantly back and forth into different forms, and vital for all life. LF
