“Today you are YOU, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than YOU.”
-Dr. Seuss

We welcome in October and with it a new one word to explore for the month, YOU.

YOU are beautiful

YOU are strong

YOU are creative

YOU are brave

YOU are enough

YOU are loved

YOU are needed

YOU are perfectly imperfect

YOU inspire

YOU give

YOU shine

YOU ROCK!

Yes YOU

Share with us the beauty of you.  All the lovely, quirky, silly, fragile, fierce, complicated, amazing pieces of you.

This month is gonna be good! I can feel it already. Can YOU?

  8. this is so awesome. I have been recently feeling lost. Too much momma, too much pleasing. I am RIGHT now on a quest to find ME again.
    Thanks.

  12. I LOVE the chocolaty tones in this image, do you use PS actions? OK, I really like the image too, cause I really like savouring my coffee usually when I am alone, so I really get the "YOU".

  14. What a wonderful word for the month! I am just starting my second week of a course called Unravelling, and it is a course designed to help know yourself better. I have just spent a few days out in the glorious countryside and have been doing some writing and meditating on what "season" of my life I am in. Did a blogpost as a result about seasons, as a result of trying to find out more about myself.

  16. How interesting this is! I love to read all your comments and follow the links. My first thought was not about self portraits, however, but portraits, how I see "you" when I shoot pictures. I made a portrait of my daughter the other day that captured something of her uniqueness to me: "This is how I see YOU". http://www.flickr.com/photos/ingwii/6203053861/

  17. My first reaction was that this month's word was about me – and I was immediately uncomfortable with the thought of so many self portraits. A challenge, yes, but would I follow through?

    Then I thought, if I were using the word, I'd be talking about how I see other people.

    So I split the difference: a splintered reflection

  19. This picture got my attention as soon as i saw it. I love the tone of color. What I love the most about this picture it the word "YOU." It makes it the focal point.
