To Explain My Absence...

Journal Entry: Thu Apr 25, 2013, 1:35 PM
  • Mood: Relief
  • Listening to: Music
  • Playing: Paloma Faith (brilliant singer)
Dear all.

My apologies for not returning messages, comments left for me.
I do thank those of you who have been so supportive, kind and complimentary on a number of things, though. :heart:

Okay I will try to explain now:

Last year, it was almost certain I was going to be homeless, very literally, to do with a situation.
It's taken some months to keep me from having it actually happen.
At the same time as that, I also had some very personal things also going on.

To keep a roof over my head, has been very tough and luckily I had the know how, to make sure it was finally avoided. Months of stress, worry and sadness through all that.

Then, as if they weren't enough to deal with, I then had a health worry.

Finally got to see a Surgeon and It turned out I had to have throat surgery and had to be done ASAP the Surgeon said, for worry of Cancer.
It's still not 100% since surgery. I will be OK though.

The day after the hospital rang me to go in for surgery, I had a letter to tell me the place I wanted to move to, was okay to do so, so that could go ahead.
However, I couldn't see to anything at first, as had to have my operation.

I was in a bad way for a while as there were a couple of problems with recovery, which I haven't told anyone about and won't do, but I am Okay.

Can't list all that's gone on, but anyhow......Through all that, I had just 2 weeks to sort and pack my house up.
I hadn't the strength, time or energy on my side, so had to take half my junk with me, but I did it. I have no idea how on earth I did it either, but there was no option, it had to happen, everything had been set in place just before surgery. Timing has been so weird this last year with things.
I needed to sort things before my operation though, so I had things to at least look forward to, to keep me going.
I had no idea I wouldn't be up to all the packing really - tbh, I had not had time to think, let alone work out all the goings on.
.

So, I then finally moved to my new abode. Had work done in it too, so that on top of the rest too, well...

Just am glad to live to tell the tale though. :-)


This image below,  I did a while ago and added to my gallery, because I was reflecting on what if the worst happened.



I am doing okay though and am seeing things getting better now. :-)
I am glad to have moved. :dance:
It isn't where I had planned, but I feel at home now, for the first time in my whole life. What's more, I chose my new abode this time and feel happier in this one than I ever felt in any of my previous homes. :-)

Jan' 2013
FINALLY!!!! Got Internet again. :-)
Only shot one or two odd ones in last few days, nothing special, but may submit at some point - a lot has been happening, this has hindered my shooting sessions. Some of what's going on is great, but some is not good, but I am optimistic and will remain that way, as it is the best way to be. :nod: :-)





18/11/12
Please note:
I am unable to submit to groups, I had to leave the groups I was with, not enough time to do them, essentially.
I did a Journal about this, but still receiving group requests. Thank you though. ;-)


I never knew of DA until 2011, when told about it. I'd have been here a lot sooner otherwise.

Been in to Photography since I was so inspired, 33 years ago. Just never had a decent camera before. I deleted my older shots on here from my little camera (there were quite a lot), since buying my new pride and joy, that I finally could buy myself Dec' 2011 - my Canon. :-)


With my Poetry - well, it's just something I have done for years also, but always just for me, not to show. Then I was talked in to submitting it on here, so I do.
My late 'Mum', well she wanted me to continue, so I do it for her now.
(Since writing this, I felt the need to delete my poetry that I had here, apart from some those on images. There are also a few of same poems I wrote, different images in others' fav's around DA, that I deleted from my gallery.
I am still writing, still also have a number to eventually add in time that I wrote over a few years..

I want to get back into painting on Canvas too, so much - money prevails for now though. I might just get back in to that and drawings again, once I get some money to afford all my equipment again.


Please Note:
I don't do Facebook, Twitter etc., I have no interest in them or any need for it.

Journal History

Art related...

18/10/12
I don't know if anyone from the groups I had joined at one time, will see this, but hope so...

Due to illness and other things going on over the last few months, I found I had no time for submitting to groups as well as my gallery, or reply to messages from the groups I joined, so I had to leave.
I hadn't said anything about being ill for a few months, so no-one knew until recently, but I wanted to keep trying.
I should be OK now, but I still need my spare time, to make time for those I love and care for, as I always promise that I will.




All my features on here, numbers 1-5, are works of others on here, not just my watchers.
I don't manage to do as many as I had before, but now and then I add to the features.
There is some amazing work here on DA, so varied and I like to show their great works for others to notice too. :-)






Art to me is as important as my life - I respect both.

I never say I will do things, unless I am 100% certain, without doubt and that includes now - there's no doubt. :-)



I had my art work destroyed by a very possessive partner in the past and it killed me inside, as I had spent hours upon hours on them all - paintings, drawings and photographs, even my writing. Some I had had for years at that point too. He told me to get rid of them, which I wouldn't of course, so he did!

It deterred me somewhat, I have to say.





I have been a varied artist, since I was very young, (drawing, painting, ceramics, photography and writing, musical instruments too), so I soak in others' art too and love to add it as and when.

Art is a 'feeling free' experience. It is exciting. No artist should feel restricted. Art is for viewing, feeling as though you are inside it often and for reflection of all things around, plus many other reasons, no matter who fav's it, or who admires it.


Art is my passion, it is for many others' too and having it on here is the point of it all.

I have also noticed that beauty is sometimes, the person behind the Art, as well as the Art itself. ;-)



A beautiful person is just born that way and is more precious. They don't see that in themselves, but it is so true.

A beautiful person has so much that they are so clever and good at, they are so talented and so inspiring, but
don't see that in themselves either.

Such beauty is to be recognised always - it is there very much so, inside and out and that is a rare thing for someone to have both and not just anyone either. ;-)

Just saying...

4/12/12
A while ago in 2011, I was asked by someone, if I would be with him, once we were in touch again for a while.
He told me how badly he's always been controlled, he just hadn't realised that is what she was doing to begin with. He spoke of how much pain he felt inside because of it and my heart went out to him. He was a shell of the man he always used to be.
We always got on so well, but I do not do affairs and made that clear to him, that that would not happen.
After a while, he told me he had decided to become single so it was OK - then it chopped and changed a few times, but I dropped everything anyway, for the plans he put to me, when it was a yes, then all change again when told actually no, she's turned up again, then was told yes he is single again and so on.
Then not...

Anyway, so much happened...
I showed all the messages to a good friend, to try and work things out of what had gone on, after contact was stopped.
Too many changes to work it out really, however...

Anyone in a crisis, needs to get away from it, it is not a life having to go through all that.
I trusted him when he told me to trust him and believed everything he told me and asked of me.

If I don't get to say anything else on here, I will say that I understood what he was going through, even though I am not needed now, but nonetheless, my concerns for his safety and for him to be loved, not treated like a caged animal, was as real as it gets. It was so hard being told about the hell he's put through.
I also received a message to be told how she was planning to do things to him so no-one would look at him ever again.
Is he OK? I have no idea. :-(

My point is this...
It is Domestic Abuse Awareness at this time of the year more than other times, although it's still as bad what they do every single time, it happens all year, every year.
So...
I hope that any males being so controlled and mentally abused and manipulated, especially at the same horrific level, will be able to free themselves to get the life they deserve, to be happy.
The same for those women who are controlled and abused too.

Perpetrators, women as well as men, say that it's their partner doing it, to distract from what they are really doing, not the partner.

Control freaks are partly so, from being so insecure inside themselves from having had affairs as part of it. They are also like it, just to have the feeling, the need to make themselves feel good at the expense of the one they are with.

I hope people will get through their lives of hell, I really do.

I have always had time for those going through hell like the above. I do it because I care, not for getting anything out of it other than hopefully, some at least, managing to have free and spared lives.
Please take care. :tighthug: :heart:






Sep'/11
Mental abuse is actually just as abusive as physical abuse. So, do not tell yourselves it's okay if you don't harm, because you already have verbally and when you have been told so many times, yet still do it, proves so much the ugly person you are. You are already ugly anyway, doing what you do, but then to lie and make out you are 'hard-done-by, is so twisted, along with all you do to that person!

I saw this image below and I support those who want to support sufferers - I support sufferers so much, I care too.

:thumb130806056: love is not deliveredLove is not expressed with a fist.
Being kicked or pushed is not a sign of caring
Love does not include bruises, cuts or fractures.  
Love means putting your life on the line to prevent your love from being hurt.
You are not a punching bag,
You do not deserve the pain
If they truly loved you they would get help.
If they go too far and strike you, how long
Before they go too far, and permanently damage you,
Disfigure, maim or kill you.
Leave them, report them.


How this looks in those expressions on the outside of a sufferer, is exactly what it does to them, inside and much more and so deep.
It isn't the person they are with, that they do not wish to lose, it's their control over them that they cannot bear the thought of losing, as it makes them feel better about themselves, so they do it more and more and more. They use emotional blackmail, they use other blackmail, to frighten the sufferer from leaving them. They rage more and abuse more, if that object (as they see the spouse), dares to try and get away.
No way, not ever, is love like that, it just is not. Control Freaks is what it is.
