It is true that we sometimes only focus on the endpoint and forget about the work and rejection it can take to get there. My parents always told me that anything worth getting has to be worked for and I whole heartedly agree. Some of the greatest things in life mean so much more because they weren't handed to us. I remind myself of this everytime a photographer doesn't respond back to me after seeing my full body shots or when a I'm told my face is gorgeous "but..." So thank you again, Ms. Allie, for your inspiration and honesty.Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16199013924829250843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5299417788764286866.post-67424227407423206052012-06-29T22:13:15.040-04:002012-06-29T22:13:15.040-04:00Hi Allie you have no idea how much this blessed me...Hi Allie you have no idea how much this blessed me. I remember first talking to you online through Venus Diva and seeing you in passing at a casting last year for FFF Week. At that time I can honestly say I was overwhelmed and excited with seeing the many models in the industry whose work I admired at the same casting. To me, it was like how you felt when you met Mia. The journey is tough, and sometimes it feels like I am on pause but I just continue to be thankful for where I am now because I am learning and growing. I am thankful for your encouragement and also for your accomplishments because I saw your pic in the mall at the AS and was like oh there goes Allie! (as if I knew you personally.. Lol smh) anyways I am saying this to say thank you for sharing, encouraging and just thrivin in what you do...God is good and I am sure we will be seeing more of u!. U rock girl! God bless! -LimariePoetikmindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02635552070591232629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5299417788764286866.post-62247021523712880292012-06-26T08:58:31.646-04:002012-06-26T08:58:31.646-04:00I'm a lurker, but I had to comment.

You're right, sometimes we look at other people's lives through a lens and we think things come so easily to them/others while we have to struggle. But truth is that we all have our hurdles to jump through, lessons to learn before it can be "our turn". You had your fair share of lessons and hurdles through all the doors which were slammed in your face, malicious comments which could have been enough to break anyone's esteem. But here you are standing tall at the end of it all! You did well.Voluptuous Vixenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14480036926163354142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5299417788764286866.post-65959143775673257532012-06-13T21:28:11.029-04:002012-06-13T21:28:11.029-04:00Thanks for this!
