New Directions

This first post marks the start of a new chapter in my ever-changing life.

Tomorrow morning I'll be moving away from home for the first time, a somewhat daunting feat. Not only that, but I'm moving 3,000 miles away to Baltimore, MD from tiny Ireland.

I've been looking forward to this opportunity for so long and I feel I badly need this time away from Galway as it can sometimes be suffocating. I know I'm going to gain some serious life experience and am extremely "lucky" to have this opportunity, but I can't help but feel a little bit frightened and unprepared for the journey ahead.

I'll let you all know about this crazy new chapter in my life...

Me As A Painting

Some people all they see is orange & red. Some people they stare and that's all they get. Those that look further will always see and find more. They'll see the soft brush strokes and emotion drawn.

Lost In Life

I don't know my direction, Away from the street signs, I'm lost without the light, of the fluorescent street lights.

My Portrait

The world is my canvas, it's mine to paint. Splashes of colour before I vacate. My palette contains colours so bright. Turning brown to orange, and darkness to light.

Toe To Head

Beneath the leather of these shoes, Lays the feet that will walk my road. The the legs above will follow, As my feet below will goad. And above those fateful legs, Is a even more pulling heart.
