My Journey: Back to doing what I LOVE!

May 17, 2012

Back to doing what I LOVE!

Hair & Makeup by Me: SuZanne

So I have always dabbled with hair & makeup, ever since I was a very young teen. Learned a lot of techniques when I modeled years ago & now I get to put them to use on others as they begin their journey down the path of beauty. Here is some of my work. I have been fortunate to be picked up by a fabulous photographer John Conroy. He himself is a International Male Model, so I am having a blast doing what I do!

In Loving Memory of one of my dearest and closest friends

Kelly & Lacie

To the "Treehouse Girls" Through our journey with Julie's passing the three of us were by her side each and every day of the last two months of her life. We laughed, we cried, we questioned, we sobbed but through it all we gained major strength and were given new relationships with each other to move forward with. We have each other now to remember our dear friend. To watch over Audrey and shower her with love. Julie named us her treehouse girls. We each have a key to hold onto. A key to Julie's heart and soul. This was something we giggeled about in hospice. We were in the treehouse. You had to have the password to come in. It made Julie feel safe and gave her some sense of relief, to feel like she really wasn't where she was at. One day we will all be together in the Big Treehouse Jewels. Until then hold down the fort.

I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone. When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. The bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest that they were not for us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us. [1 John 2:19] People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay. Let them go. And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead. You've got to know when it's dead. You've got to know when it's over. Let me tell you something. I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it. Stop begging people to stay. Let them go!! If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to...... LET IT GO!!! If you are holding on to past hurts and pains............ LET IT GO!!! If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth..... LET IT GO!!! If someone has angered you. LET IT GO!!! If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge...... LET IT GO!!! If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction...... LET IT GO!!! If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents LET IT GO!!! If you have a bad attitude..... LET IT GO!!! If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better...... LET IT GO!!! If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level in Him........ LET IT GO!!! If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship....... LET IT GO!!! If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves...... LET IT GO!!! If you're feeling depressed and stressed.................. LET IT GO!!! If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself and God is saying 'take your hands off of it,' then you need to..... LET IT GO!!! Let the past be the past. Forget the former things. GOD is doing a new thing for 2010!!
