I got a job that is way beyond my experience and if I want to use the lay man's words, way out of my league. I am talking a posh kinda thing that requires genius and creative minds. I had always seen myself as anything but...

There’s been a time where we all have faced betrayals. Which gives unbearable pain that we did expect but not ready to accept. Sometimes we also feel the burn inside our soul. The pain we felt we also feel like the other person must suffer in order to understand what they are doing is wrong. But no! Some people will never understand if they don’t want to.
@honeydue Theater is one of those things I've always felt incredibly connected with. I've half an idea of myself in some decades' time, perhaps, when the thrill of being a novelist wears off or leaves me temporarily, where I might hide myself in the theater. Write. Direct. I don't know.
@chris-chris92 I don't think I've ever dared to exemplify my emotions through an image before. I mean, it's as abstract as it is undefined. How is joy, or anger, supposed to be represented? With a smiling person or another one showing teeth of rage? I find both pretensions too cliché, predictable and honestly boring. But since this is an art of subjectivity and emotions are as human as error, I have decided to try to fulfill the goal I have set for myself; 3 emotions in 3 photographs.
@jhymi Blending in, being invisible, waiting to be called, not showing body too much... All those things are virtues I hold dearly to myself. I’ve had more than my fair share of negative spotlight and I’ve realized the countless times the power the invisible people have over those who are simply always out there. I'm living by it now.

It has been a couple of weeks already that the writer has been pondering upon things that have been continuously bringing a crashing feeling to his chest. Apologies ahead of time for the inconsistency of the writings because of his heavy thoughts and aching heart. Anyway, let’s move forward.
@jlinaresp
I'm somehow in these photos. In my complex universe of limited expressive capacity I often use images to express protest, sadness, confusion, and even joy.... That's why I take street photos, because it is in the streets where the nuances appear spontaneous, diverse and unexpected with every meter walked. From there I take them, enclose them and turn them into my statements. Maybe that's why I also use to title each photo.
@palomap3 What started as a kind of self-therapy had become a crushing obligation. The funny thing is that no one, absolutely no one but me has missed it. No one has asked me about his absence through any of my channels of contact. Neither in public nor in private.
@nmore
I recently relocated to Taguig for my new job which isn't anything new for me as I've moved closer to previous jobs in the past due to my dislike of long commutes. However, this move is a bit different from my prior experiences. For the first time, I will be living alone and truly independently.
@rem-steem 
I grew up in the heart of a sprawling city, where the concrete jungle stretched as far as the eye could see. While the city had its own charm, it never quite felt like home to my soul. It was a place of noise, congestion, and ceaseless motion, a far cry from the serene simplicity of nature that beckoned me.
