We all change so much on the journey, and its only when you take a moment and analyse a period of your life, that you realise how much. It’s something I’ve done a lot of lately too.

Thanks for sharing this..I’ve done this lately,
Still no regrets of yesterday..

By the way, you’re beautiful..^_^

Your thoughts about this time in your life indicate that you’ve always been a bit more than just what people could see, though the view was quite lovely. It is imperative that as we try to understand and put into perspective our own evolution as ‘characters’ in our life’s story that we glean a bit from each and every chapter lest we mislead ourselves into how we’ve become what we can be proud of. Peace.

Wonderful thought!..I really liked this. well done! thanx for sharing. .the pics looks so cute..mmmm

It really made me think… about my past and my future. I am happy where I am now because 5 yrs bck was the hardest time for me.. Thx for sharing

And you was workin that picturre!!! Flawless!!!

Thanks for giving us an insiders look. Change isn’t always bad.

We understand ourselves better by seeing who we were before. But I believe what matters is that we can appreciate the beauty in us externally and internally. You’re beauty is appealing and again, I am reminded of a quote by Hungerford that “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” We should be thankful to the inventor of the camera because it preserves at least a memory of what we were before. Change makes life more exciting.

Yes this is true for most anyone. I can say the same about my life.

Take Care, DreamSweet and Let Your Heart Shine

I know exactly what you mean. When I look back to fifteen years ago, I can’t believe the changes that have taken place in my life in fifteen years. It is amazing.

Change can be a good thing, though I do believe many people rarely truly change. Old habits die hard.

I think you’re a beautiful person inside out…change is inevitable but the wise one always sees it coming!

Lovely photo, Life is a wonderful journey,hopefully one can learn to be strong enough to know that when times are difficult you have the strength to pull youself through to the good times again.

Wonderful introspection. Made me think of the changes in my own life as well. Thanks for sharing a piece of your mind to us.

This made me think of the fact that we often do not see or feel a transition while it is occuring, but rather see it after we’ve reached a new destination in our lives and we have the opportunity to look back. Isn’t it good that your roads got you to where you are now? This one gets the mind thinking, great effect. Michael

Don’t be dismayed Tanya. The beauty is always there. It’s nice that you have shared with us a photo of your younger self. We are all constantly changing, tell me someone who doesn’t. If life is a chemical experience, then obviously every molecules of our body are in constant reaction. Within ourselves and the outside world, just imagine what gave rise to our way of thinking.

I feel the same way: “How I have changed!”

changes are inevitable. nice poem.

wow, this is… I’m truly speechless, you got me thinking, I’m 18 and where will I be 15 years from now. p.s. beautiful picture by the way.
