Do you ever feel invisible? Don't get me wrong, sometimes that's exactly what I want. And nine times out of ten if I had to choose, I'd rather just be left alone and pretty much unseen. But there are times I wish people would pay attention to me, yet no matter what I say or do... nothing. I get absolutely nothing. It's frustrating and depressing and does not help my self confidence, especially considering those times I don't want to be ignored are typically the times my confidence is waning and I need a bit of a boost from my friends. But do I get it? Of course not. 

*sigh* 

I don't quite know why but I just feel awfully alone and ignored right now. And I don't like it.

I understand how you feel, Leah. I feel that way sometimes, too. I think everyone feels that way sometimes. I try to get here as often as I can, but sometimes I just get busy with stuff and I don't have a chance to visit people until really late or night, or a couple of days down the road. I figure I'm doing good when I get a chance to post...

Take heart, dear friend. People are probably gearing up for the year-end round of holidays (Thanksgiving and Christmas) and they don't have much time to be online. I will try harder to be here more often, too...

Leah, you are incredibly talented, and one day, the world is going to see that. Some of the most amazing photos I've ever seen were taken by YOU - you truly do have a photographer's eye and the gift that goes with it. I just wanted you to know that you are loved and appreciated, and that you bring something special to the world that no one else can bring.
