Daileydose

Hi,
My name is Bathsheba but I like to be called Beth.

1) One of my dreams is to make a better life for my three girls

2) The second dream is to have my poetry in a book of my own one day.

3) The third dream is to find true love, not just a man wanting to use a girl as a game piece.

My favorite quote is ( it is what it is ) the reason this is my favorite quote is because life will throw you anything at anytime when it is least expected and we just have to deal with it and go on with life. The reason I write is to let go of those feelings that torment me by things that has happened to me in my life...

My name is Larry Jackson.
1) One of my biggest dreams is to be able to live long enough to see my family grow to be happy and to see my 3 granddaughters grow up.

2) My second dream is to become a well known and respected artist.

3) my other dream is to continue to make friends online as well as in real life and to be liked by people. My friend Lea aka booleannangel invited me, so I joined.

My favorite quote is "you can't judge a book by its cover" I find that very true in life.

Actionjack

Naiseken

Thank you so much for the feature!!! It means so much to me!!
--What are the top three things you dream to achieve?
1) I hope to pursue a career in something I love. I want to be able to wake up in the
morning, and be excited about what I do.
2) I hope to get married and raise a family in the future.
3) I hope to develop as an artist, and become better at what I do.
--How did you find Shadowness?
I was searching the internet for sites similar to deviantArt, as it has become so disappointing in the past. I've been there under the same username for over 5 years, and have received very little feedback. I'm really enjoying this site and the community, as it is vastly more supportive!
--What is your all-time favorite quote and why?
"I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity"-Edgar Allan Poe. I've always joked with friends that Sanity is overrated, and that a little bit of crazy does everyone some good. Plus, Poe is my favorite author. :)
It's nice to meet you all, and thank you for welcoming me to this community!!!

elestrial

Thanks for the warm welcoming!

What are the top three things you dream to achieve? Max out my skills in illustration & design, expand my business to a comfortable size, & then teach my kids everything I know :)

How did you find Shadowness? I saw someone else post their shadowness profile on their website and was curious what it was

What is your all-time favourite quote and why? I don't really have ONE favorite all time quote but I do have a few favorites - all for inspirational and words-of-encouragement reasons:
"Success is going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm." - Winston Churchill
"Good judgment comes from bad experience and a lot of that comes from bad judgment." - Will Rogers
"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat." -- T. Roosevelt

LittleThings

Hi, my name is Lauren, and in my day job I work as a zoologist for climate change and terrestrial biodiversity.

What are the top three things you dream to achieve?
1. To contribute significantly to decreasing extinction rates as a result of rapid human-forced climate change
2. To travel, and experience new cultures and wisdom humbly
3. To treat people around me with understanding and kindness

How did you find Shadowness?
Dynnnad on deviantART mentioned it in his journal (I have yet to find out who he is here, heheh, by would like to as I really enjoyed his photography). I joined because I prefer the ethics of this site.

What is your all-time favourite quote and why?
"I go my own way; but your way may go along with mine for a while" - Treebeard, Lord of the Rings, JRR Tolkien.
I like it because it reminds me that I am responsible for my own choices at all times, in all relationships. It also reminds me of the buddhist philosophy on 'small deaths'... 'Death' of a kind happens all the time, every day, as we transition through life. Some 'deaths' are necessary for us to move on through this life, such as 'death' of some friendships. It also emphasises life in the moment, enjoying now. Tolkien knew what he was on about :)

hussam

Good morning.
My name is Hussam.
I like photography. I am still a beginner. In my philosophy, photography is a scene, a camera, and an eye. I am searching for scenes everywhere. I try to understand it, thus I can tweak the camera to catch the best of it. I prefer tweakable cameras. I am using now an old Olympus evolt 510 camera. I have even older OM lens system. Optically, they are perfect and they give me the chance to turn everything to manual. I am trying to squeeze the scene to the last drop.
I cannot use the photo editing programs. My photos are exactly as originally been taken. I may try to use these programs later to add more effects or to correct some capturing mistakes. Some scenes do not give a lot and sometimes the photographer needs to add something himself.
I heard about shadowness from a friend. I found it a very nice friendly community with wide spectrum of graphics categories. It is very nice to exchange ideas and experiences.
I like reading quotes. I found this today: “It's always too early to quite “ of Norman Vincent Peale.

Hello everybody
My name is Ville. I'm from Finland and I live in Sweden atm.
I'm amateur photographer and just now I'm doing 365 project. The idea of the project is to take one (or more) photos each day for a year. I'm currently in day 7, so the project has just started. The meaning of the project ofcourse is to get better at photographying. I occasionally add also some of my older photos here, but the main idea is to add a fresh photo each day.

What are the top three things you dream to achieve?
Travel the world
There's actually no other than that at the moment.

How did you find Shadowness?
I found shadowness through a member called solstickan.

What is your all-time favourite quote and why?
Maybe Arthur C. Clarke's "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." because I couldn't think of any other quote right now.
