long days and pleasant nights

Exploring a day in the red dirt desert of the southwest of the united states. With hope on my sleeve and the earth between my toes.

My injuries of 2018 have shown me the strength I possess. I know life is hard and full of struggles and it is important to fight through it to the other side. Or until you hit your next hurdle for you to grow from. (at Portland, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/kgylfphe/p/BsYfhTZFD56/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1rvf85hdf02eg

I feel exhausted and worn down. My creativity is at a low and the struggle to keep my brain content seems like an everyday challenge. It’s hard to keep up with social media and be present. It feels like I create and create and create and get no return. I have become addicted to the “likes” and notifications and how many followers I have, yet it does not make me happy. I am unsure of my creative path as I head into 2019, but perhaps this is just a speed bump and I should take it easy.

Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered I have fought my way here to the castle beyond the Goblin City to take back the child you have stolen, for my will is as strong as yours and my kingdom as great. You have no power over me! #sabbat #witches #witch #witchcraft #pagan #Goth #satan #metal #metalhead #spiritualgrowth #pdxphotographer #darkphotography #womenownedbusiness #portraitcollective #makeportraits #chasinglight #canon #bravogreatphoto #naturallight #quietthechaos #watchthisinstagood #belovedstories (at Cape Meares, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/kgylfphe/p/BpfN989lYD9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1pzxy8g09wj2n

The changes of seasons is heavy and strong. This is the time for self care and taking time for yourself. 🌞 #samhain #weatherchangesmoods #scorpio (at Portland, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/kgylfphe/p/BpXWGmfliDd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1004iqmv34wdu
