Perseverance and a Gorgeous Rapseed Field

Happy Friday! I hope you all had a nice week.

 

As an actress I often think about giving up, but then the voice inside me tells me to carry on and be strong, the reason why I am telling you this is because of the photos on this post, I'll explain: a couple of weeks ago on my way to Gatwick Airport my husband and I spotted a beautiful Rapeseed field and I knew there and then that this was a great location for a photo-shoot, yep, as a blogger I'm always on the look out for amazing locations. A few weeks later I was back with my fellow uni colleague Duane for a photo-shoot. We were dropped on the motorway on a beautiful gorgeous day. But unbeknownst to me, between the motorway and the Rapeseed field stood stinging nettles, thorns, a stream and a barbed wire fence that didn't really bond with my tights or lace dress; I soon realised that perhaps we couldn't proceed with our photo session. We quickly decided just to go for it and with Duane's help I managed to jump the stream to the other side without ripping my tights. I also had an audition in the afternoon and in case you are wondering I didn't get the part. You see, I got the shoot, but not the role. 

 

Perseverance and tenacity will keep on pushing me on my journey, if I had given up and called it a day on the photo-shoot I wouldn't have these pictures and although I didn't get the part I'll continue fighting, so everybody reading this post I want to say keep on striving and believing in yourself, don't give up on your dreams because perseverance is the key.
