Alright, let’s talk about this whole “Chasing Beauty” thing. It’s been a wild ride, to say the least. So, I jumped into this project, you know, inspired by all that stuff about Isabella Stewart Gardner. I mean, who wouldn’t be? This lady was all about beautiful things, living life to the fullest. I wanted a piece of that, I guess.
So, I started digging. Reading everything I could get my hands on about her, about the modeling world, even watched a documentary. Yeah, I went deep. And you know what? It got me thinking, really thinking about what beauty even means. Is it just about how things look? Or is there more to it?
I decided to get my hands dirty. I began by changing up my own space. Bought some new art, rearranged the furniture, you know, trying to make things more… aesthetically pleasing. It felt good, but it wasn’t enough. I wanted to do more than just look at beauty, I wanted to create it.
- I signed up for a painting class. Me, painting! Can you believe it?
- I started taking more photos, trying to capture the beauty I saw in everyday things.
- And I even tried modeling, just for kicks. It was awkward, let me tell you.
Honestly, it was a mess. My paintings looked like a five-year-old did them. My photos were blurry, and my modeling attempts… well, let’s just say I’m not the next supermodel. But you know what? I was having fun. I was experimenting, trying new things, and yeah, failing a lot. But through all that, I started to see beauty in a different way.
It wasn’t just about the perfect picture or the flawless face. It was about the effort, the trying, the messy, imperfect process of creating something. It was about the passion, the energy, the life that went into it. And that, I realized, was what Isabella Stewart Gardner was all about. She didn’t just collect beautiful things; she lived a beautiful life, full of passion and creativity.
A New Perspective
So, yeah, this whole “Chasing Beauty” thing didn’t turn out how I expected. I didn’t become a famous model or a brilliant artist. But I learned something way more valuable. I learned that beauty isn’t something you find; it’s something you create. And it’s not about perfection; it’s about the journey, the process, the life you put into it. And that’s a kind of beauty I can get behind. Also I found out this journey is not easy, and you may meet some setbacks. But it’s ok, just keep going. I believe everyone can make it if you keep faith in yourself.
Finally, I think I should keep doing this, it’s a long-term journey, there is still a long way to go.
