Chapter 5 - Let's move backwards

So I had this discussion with some friends on several occasions, over coffee or drinks or virtually over msn, that  we need to live backwards. Start with what you want. Start with what you love and work to get it. Identify your passion, know what makes you tick, find what you love. And don't stop till you find it. For the drive that you would experience would see you through all the shit life throws at you and the bullshit people would give you. You will experience a powerful impetus to achieve your goal with an amazing momentum quite unlike anything else. Don't sail through life hoping for that elusive something. Want that elusive something bad enough and life might just give it to you. Or rather, life will give it to you. I might have problems doing this in my favourite 3-inch heels but you know what? Let's walk backwards. Life's a balancing act anyway.


Some random sketches I did months ago...it's a shift dress with black lace running through the entire front panel of the dress...so there! I am working backwards to create the dress I want.
