Charisma's Crazy Beautiful 2011

I have always wanted to do a year-ender-photo-blog, but I though was a writer since college and a photografreak from the longest time imaginable - I was never really able to to do and publish one. Well, today, when I am actually doing one, I have come to realize that 2011 is the best year to start with.. True that reflection happens every end of each year, and as we turn in the calendar we always say that the year we are about to bid good bye to is by far the best year -- however, for Charisma Torres; 2011 is truly one heck of a Memorable, Perpetually Pinned to my Life's Timeline, Crazy Beautiful Year. 

To call it a roller-coaster is an understatement, its more a Yin-Yang-ish kind of year; I had the worst first half and an awesome year's end; truly a manifestation of the Big Man Up Above's Promise of Love, Favor, Restoration and that He can turn one's mourning into dancing. 

My dad having a heart problem, a deeply broken heart, and my best friend leaving for SG to take on a permanent job sprayed my January 2011 with dark shades of grey. It was then followed by scares and an accident that almost cut my life's journey to an untimely ending.

But just when I thought that my year is directed towards a dooms-day fail, it did a sudden somersault which geared me to face the sky over troubled waters, where a perfectly painted rainbow was there waiting to greet me.

My career went heading the direction I've wanted and signed conformes from clients when shooing in, my family was graciously blessed with our property dealings, participated in the MVP Olympics and Ms. PLDT & won 1st runner up, my dad was completely healed, and my heart has been freed from hate and hurting; it is once again ready to truly love and freely live. I was able to write again and read my verses out loud. Also, I have been blessed with the opportunity to relax and travel, meet and gain a few real friends, re-unite old friendships and just spend time with the family + our latest added member, Sushi; my 2 month old baby ShiTzu. Oh, and I have two tattoos; on my back inked in black is the Hebrew of Thy Will Be Done On Earth As It Is In Heaven and  inked in white, place on my right arm to remind me that truly, one must Live the Life you Love ♥

Here are my 2011 highlights -- to all those who have faithfully stayed come sunny days or rock bottom; you guys are the best and am truly blessed to have you in my life, to the new friendships; with no doubt you guys have brought color and bliss to my year -- here is to the year that was and to the year that God is about to bless us with - cheers! :)
