When Was The Last Time You Dreamed?


Lately, a recurrent theme has been happening in my life . . . dreaming. Whether it's goals. Whether it's the future. Whether it's practical things in the present. I've been thinking about dreams, wishes, hopes, call it what you may. Then I think . . . 

Do I live as a dreamer?

Do I dream for my family? For my future? For my life? For my faith? We all dream what we want to be when we grow up. What about if we dreamed even though we are already grown up? 

Dreams and desires are a strange thing. Some say you only need to believe for it to be true. Some say not to be unrealistic. I say, find out what your dream is and what it looks like, and then do it. No excuses. No procrastination. Live your dream. Live today. Dream.

Now What?

Where has the time gone? Three hundred and sixty-five photos have been challenged and taken. Who would have thought?

However, as always, it is time to look to the future. So first of all, I am going to talk about this blog. When I first started it back in October 2010 {yes, it was around back then, and yes, I am a little embarrassed about what went on it}, I had no idea what I was doing or if I even wanted to blog. And then it turned into photography . . . And the rest is history.

Through this past year I have learned so much about blogging. Did you know there is a whole world out there called the blogging community? Neither did I. But there is. And it is awesome. Many people {mostly women} like me or completely different than me are sharing their lives with others. And there are so many ways to do just that. I learned a lot more about what blogging is, and therefore I have had plenty of time to think about which parts I want to incorporate into A Silver Snapshot.

A part of the blogging world is components such as giveaways, link parties, sponsporships, guest posting, and more. I have seriously looked {and yes, prayed} into these components and what they would all entail and have decided that it is not the direction I will be going, at least not in the immediate future. I realize that that could dampen my chances of recognition or promotion, but I am completely at peace about that. I always said right from the beginning that I wanted to blog even if nobody reads it. 

So what will my blog look like? I have been asked that question a few times by my dear friends {which by the way, I am so very grateful for your support through all of this}. Well, to be honest, I am not completely sure. I know of things I want to do for sure and things I could potentially do, but it is all up in the air. Guess you'll just have to continue checking in to find out, eh? Things I know for sure are the following: there will still be photographs {and lots of them}, there will still be lifestyle posts, and there will still be frequent posts {just not every day, or maybe every day, I don't know}.

For now, I am taking a bit of a break shall we say. For about a week, there will not be any original posts. Instead, I will be recapping my favourite pictures from the last year {I know, how long can she cling to the 365 photo challenge}, but hey, it's been a part of my life for a whole year. You can't blame me. 

Thank you so much for going through this journey with me. It has changed me in more ways that anyone can ever know. I have found and discovered so much about myself, love, life, relationships, God, and my future. I am looking forward to much more exploration through A Silver Snapshot, but for now, enjoy the recap!
