My Mentality: In Snapshots

Because a picture's worth a thousand words, right?

Anyway, things that are on my mind lately in photographic format

Call me...

Call me "emotional..."
But I'd rather feel.  I love love.  I love realizing how grateful I am for the people in my life, or the music I sing, or the moments that occur on the stage.  I would rather love with passion and end up with a broken heart, than feel regular or empty forever.  Sure, there's a price for everything, but I would never sacrifice my ability to love for anything.

Call me "liberal..."
But I prefer open-minded.  I believe every political or religious belief has its own accuracy.  How can I judge someone based on a faith I know next to nothing about? More than impossible, it's simply wrong.  If people could just take the time to sit down and listen to each other with a moderate level of respect, our society would be in a whole heck of a lot better shape.

Call me "hopeless romantic..."
But I don't think there's anything wrong with having aspirations.  I'm not saying I would expect crazy signs of affection 24-7 (creepy) but what's the problem with expecting to be treated right?  And I'm also not saying that it shouldn't be reciprocal.  Relationships require give and take, and saying that only boys should go the extra step is wrong.  This is not the 1950s people, we can ALL share love and caring with any and everyone.

Call me "dreamer..."
But if I didn't have goals, (however unrealistic mine are) I'd be going nowhere.  Having dreams inspires you to work for the future, or even that next audition.  And where would be as society, if people didn't allow themselves to have aspirations and hopes?? Great minds, artists, and leaders would never have made the impact that they did.  Our society would be bland, simple, and utterly lacking.  The world needs dreamers and I'm proud to be one.

Call me "artistic..."
But I beg to differ.  I'm still drawing stick figures! But in reality, I understand why people consider me to be artsy.  I spend a minimum of 3 hours a day either rehearsing for a show, practicing music, or both!  I love what I do.  There's nothing better than the first moment the stage lights hit your skin or when you hit "that note" during your piece.  Everyone should pursue their passion, and mine happens to involve the arts.  Calling me artistic would certainly be accurate, but it's definitely not something I'm ashamed of, nor does it entirely describe me either.

Call me Bridget.


Love.
