IMAGES OF SELF





Images of Self

I was given a name
I want to make it count for something.
I was given an identity I want to discover it.
I was given a purpose.                 
I want to fulfill it.
I was given dreams.
I want to chase them.
What do I see when I look in the mirror?
What do others see when they look at me?
What do I want them to see?
Who am I? Who do I want to be?

My name is Jennifer.
My favorite scent is fresh cucumbers
My favorite color is orange - the kind of orange that has a depth and makes you wonder if it's really red.
My favorite drink is hot tea: Earl Gray to be exact.
If I could only listen to one sound, it would be the waves crashing on the rocks at Cape Hatteras
If I could only have one creative outlet it would be singing
I dream of being a Pastor one day.
The best part of life is the spirituality of it that can be discovered in everything if you look hard enough.
One word to describe me? Passionate!

Looking at these pictures, what do they say about who I am? What if I didn't explain what each picture represents? What kind of conclusions would you draw? Using Flikr, I typed in a word into the search engine and chose my favorite picture to represent each of the statements above. I then put them into Flickr software as an "images of self" collage.
