To celebrate my moody side today I am sharing this beautiful mosaic I created on flickr.

OK...this might sound a bit strange...but I kinda like being moody.  Not crabby moody...but deeply moody.  You know, that introspective kind of moodiness.  Does that make sense?

Now, don't get me wrong...I love the light...happiness...joy...all that good stuff!  But sometimes, I really enjoy going in deep and feeling emotion.  Not in a torturous way...but in that "Lost in Translation" movie kind of way.  You have seen that movie, right?  Oh gosh...it's one of my all time favorites!

Anyway...

I think to really know yourself...you have to go to those places that make you think, explore, dig deep, question, sigh.  Maybe even feel a little uncomfortable the deeper you go...but keep digging, because that is good! Our souls are so complex and layered.  And it's a beautiful journey to take now and then.

It's been raining everyday since Sunday...but I have enjoyed that...as it has given me the opportunity to go  inward for awhile.

I also did a self portrait that you can see here.


Happy Moody Thursday ;)


*not to be confused with PMS...



Take a peek...I am blooming 365 days in 2010

Ahhh yes, there's nothing like gray skies and rain to get you to go inside, literally and figuratively (that's why I do so well in Seattle!). Enjoy. :) (Love the photos too).

Introspection is really important in teerms of personal growth, Caroline.
It's necessary, really to continue learning.
Besides, it's raining so much this week, the cloudy skies lend themselves perfectly to being contemplative by a warm fire and going inward !

"not to be confused with PMS" -- LOL!

Love the self portrait. You get rain - we get snow. I loved your "moody" pictures.

i like being moody too.

thank you so much for including one of mine. you are so kind.

I like being moody, too....
and often don't see it.....

but my hubby always points it out with "what are you thinking about"..."I can tell it's deep because you just disappeared"

what amazing shots! you make moody lovely. i am a very moody person, and not usually in a good way. sigh.

Meet too! I love the rain, moody photography, moody music, moody movies.

Deeply Moody and Proud!

ha! i thought i was the only one who liked being moody. i know it drives my husband crazy, but i can't help it.

beauty here..no matter the mood...thank you for your honesty and artistry!

Happy Moody Thursday.
I totally understand that feeling.
It's the kind of feeling when I want to put on one of my long skirts and walk to the park. Listen to my music and think deeply.

oh man...I think I am moody 365 a year then. I like a good introspective think and I like to sit alone and dwell. Or ponder. Its good for you.

Very nice photos. I join you in thinking that Lost in Translation was a brilliant film.

I love feeling moody at times. Today my boss actually poked fun at me because I was so friggen happy. I was almost embarrassed to be happy.
Lovely, ethereal, and introspective photos here. And I recognized Charlane's work (the roses).

Most of us don't slow down enough to look inside; hardly anyone can tolerate silence. There's always noise. I loved this post.

Yes, sometimes we have to go deep within ourself to grow and bloom and then find JOY.

So beautiful. You really are so talented, Caroline.

these photos are wonderfully moody.

I tend to have a lot of quiet moods where I need solitude and inward thinking. Great photos and your self portrait is stunning! The dramatic eye colour is awesome!

geez these photos are stunning!
