Love

Posted on May 10, 2012 BY A.H. Scott

……….It’s ironic that some of those who are most vocal against same sex marriage are those who have dinosaur bones in their own closets. Archbishop Timothy Dolan, here in NYC, said that ‘it’s a sad day for the children’. WTF?!!!! Now, I know I’m probably going to feel a little pitchfork in my butt for saying that. But, c’mon, Catholic Church. You above all other institutions want to talk about sin. Look inward instead of outward for what sin truly is. And, then there’s Mitt Romney who says “I believe marriage is between one man and one woman”. And, when I heard him say that, I was waiting for him to add ..”I believe marriage is between one man and one woman….and one woman….and another woman. WTF? That’s the history of Romney’s own ancestors of multiple wives. And, of course, Newt (Mr. Married Again and Again) Gingrich. And, all the other hypocrites down the line speak morality for themselves only. So, those who have all these rights already (and never have to enter a court to validate them) are always bitchin and moanin about the destruction of the institution of marriage, if gay men and lesbian woman get married would live by the words they love to always spout; show some Christian compassion and brotherhood and – LET LOVE RULE..!!”

MOVING ON

.

……….Here is something I think everyone ought to know: Sometimes in order to get anything done, or maybe just progress to the next step in life, you need to have your heart broken. The emotional devastation caused by heartbreak – forces us to exist at an emotional bottom so low that there arises only 2 options: 1. We Die, or 2. Climb out of the hellhole we have found ourselves in.

.

This dilemma is actually a good thing. It is not only the state of misery that teaches us so much, but it is also important to understand the journey and the reason for the misery (when we thought we were happy), where we must realize, acknowledge, and accept the truth of the situation in it’s entirety. Upon acceptance, there is no turning back. More importantly, opportunity is now so obviously in the forefront, that wallowing simply isn’t an option, nor do I feel the need to even pretend it’s an option anymore (turning back, that is).

This recent shoot truly symbolizes this time period of my life where many “epiphany” moments seem to just keep on occurring. A more polished, sleek, mature look coupled with “edgier” fashion in these photos accurately depicts my new found self-confidence and Leo pride! The energy and aura captured in these images truly expresses my charisma, and refreshed appetite for life.

Below is a list I came up with which through my experience, has shown me the ways I see myself maturing into the kind of woman I want to maintain:

.

What it is to really “Grow up”.
.

1. Taking better care of my physical self.
2. Dealing with my emotions and fears directly instead of numbing the pain.
3. Accepting failure & defeat as a means of forming new learning opportunities, thus becoming wiser, and stronger.
4. Walking through life with a strong confidence in my step.
5. Letting go of what I can’t control.

Jennifer Cole: Photographed on April 4, 2012

Posted on April 8, 2012 by Jennifer Cole

……….I’m currently in a time of my life where my perceptions, beliefs, and knowledge seem to have all of a sudden blossomed. It’s safe to say, I have never started to feel more in tune with myself: thus making this mindset ideal for a new photo shoot with TW. When I first turned 26, I battled the thoughts that told me I was getting older and I better hurry up and do something meaningful with my life. Then I realized that my life is still only beginning, especially now that all of my early life trials, joys, traumas, and dramas are finally starting to make sense. Older? Nah, I say wiser.

Jennifer Cole: Legs

The first half of my 20’s centered on partying, gaining popularity amongst my peers, and escape after escape. Both good times as well as bad times lead to destructive decisions on my end: all continuously affecting and breaking down my health, inner peace, and overall well-being.

To Be Continued……….

…..When asked recently what was the inspiration by this art work: Just a woman always used by men for her beauty. A woman who would have been loved, but also a woman who loved playing this seduction game with her body, her sexiness, her feminine desires. I created a magic witch – which made men come to her but who didn’t find the way to keep one with her forever.

Self-Portrait 2012

The link between the drawing and this recent self-portrait represents this ongoing search, the cool balance to use the females power over man, and find how to capture more than desires and smiles: find how to be the magic one.
