Why? It's exhausting to have to CONSTANTLY be fighting with yourself. It's a life long thing, ya know? It doesn't just go away. Not even with meds. The meds just makes it more bearable. It's like giving your brain armor. Armor isn't impenetrable, but it could save your life.
I had the opportunity recently to photograph Mark and his family. Mark is a photographer here in Portland as well and I randomly became friends with him on Facebook, I think through a mutual friends post about photographers in Portland? Anyways, I was on the search for finding a family to photograph in Portland and I realized Mark and his family would be perfect! Little did I know that they are expecting a new baby!
It wasn't easy getting here today
Sometimes you stumbled or I lost my way
But every roadblock was a chance to say;
Take my hand I'm here beside you.
We worked and made it through the toughest parts
Now every day is another chance to start
To look around and see where we are
It's where we were trying to get to
We are one heartbeat in the darkness
We are one lasting answered prayer
We are one unbroken promise
And we are two, true believers
