Can I have a side of Feelings with that Vision? THE MOOD BOARD

What makes you simply, You? How do those things make you feel?

WHAT IS A MOOD BOARD? & WHAT IS IT'S PURPOSE?

A mood board is a visual representation composed of a bunch of different images, texts or objects put together to reflect your general state of mind and feelings. Some of you reading may be thinking or wondering if this is similar to what most people know as a "vision board."

I look at it like this: A vision board represents your goals and aspirations that have not happened yet, but you are striving towards; therefore it lives in the future. Whereas a mood board represents how you are currently carrying yourself right now and living in the present.

MY PURPOSE:

I was inspired to create my mood board because I am currently applying for a position for a creative project and I was asked to create a visual representation of who I am so that they could get a general idea of who I am as a person. I was very enlightened by this task because I've been trying really hard to practice more of living in the present rather than always fast forwarding myself into the future and I thought that this was a great exercise. Whoever stumbles upon this I hope that you are inspired to do the same because I believe that it is very important to reflect on where you currently stand just as much as it is important to focus and prepare for your future.

Whoever is reading this right now, I hope that you grow with Vision and I hope that you grow with Love.

Here are my meanings behind each photo:

Image 1: BOLD - Has become one of my favorite words because I believe in my definition of it. To be Bold is choosing to get yourself one step closer to your higher sense of self which holds who you truly are.

Image 2: Clothes - Always been a fashionista because I love how I feel when I dress up; Freshly Confident.

Image 3: Me with a Camera - I love to capture life and my personal experiences because I believe taking a picture or a video is like stealing pieces of time and storing them in your pocket so that you can have them forever.

Image 4: A girl group holding hands - I love and stand for women supporting women because I believe in the statement that when women are united, we are better.

Image 5: My Journal - Holds all of my greatest thoughts, ideas, dreams, goals, and aspirations. I also strongly believe in the therapy that goes behind it because I'm not afraid of being vulnerable for the possibility of helping someone.

Image 6: Yoga pose on the beach - The beach environment brings me peace and my yoga pose represents how important I think it is to live balanced.

Image 7: A Butterfly - This beautiful creature to me represents my values for authenticity and uniqueness. No butterfly's wings are the same and neither are people.

Image 8: A Book - I love feeding my brain with the power of knowledge and I love feeding my soul with wise words of wisdom.

Image 9: Family infinity symbol - My family keeps me grounded and holds an eternal love that drives me everyday.
