Both Sides, Now Song by Joni Mitchell
Already mid January… the next year has begun. Another change; my sixth decade means many things yet I am very aware of time and purpose
the majority of my life has been lived, being 60 and all - if i have ten, twenty, thirty or more birthdays - how do I want to live and spend my time
my past, with the wonderful and not wonderful choices, is part of me - who and how do I want to rest of my life to be
letting go, forgiving others, forgiving myself, allowing acceptance and peace guide me
what do I want to be doing
how do I want to live
I know what is important
I know who I love
how do I prepare for this next part of life so those I love fly and will not be responsible for me
i need to make sure i take care of my health and plan ahead
so this year, my life and work is about what I love creating only for people who love and appreciate what I am and what I do
this means my time is valuable there is none to waste
my life is a choice and the things I do are about my love
the way I work is what is best
i love underwater photographer and the art created with it
love crafting images for women so they feel special, beautiful, empowered
love helping children feel special, valuable, capable, confident
i love soft colors, nature, water, clouds and want to spend more time adding this aspect into my artwork
… Rows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
Looked at clouds that way
… But now they only block the sun
They rain and they snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
… I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
… Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels
The dizzy dancing way that you feel
As every fairy tale comes real
I've looked at love that way
… But now it's just another show
And you leave 'em laughing when you go
And if you care, don't let them know
Don't give yourself away
… I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take and still somehow
It's love's illusions that I recall
I really don't know love
Really don't know love at all
… Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say, "I love you" right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way
… Oh, but now old friends they're acting strange
And they shake their heads and they tell me that I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day
… I've looked at life from both sides now
From win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusions I recall
I really don't know life at all
… It's life's illusions that I recall
I really don't know life
I really don't know life at all

OMGosh- It is the middle of July!!
This summer has been a whirl wind
everyone is finally getting together!
Love that photo shoots are such a wonderful way to help families reconnect with one another and know what is most important…
the people we love!!
Head over to Susan J Roche instagram to see some of the fun!
Plus sometimes, I just like to get in the water! BTW it is shark week!
Sometimes I hear from the kids “ if a shark comes, it’ll get me” and often they laugh screaming “look out for the wave.” So far, no sharks and I have not been tumbled
A great family portrait must have this almost indescribable personality that just melts your heart Just look at those front teeth!
After so many (OMGosh) decades, I still love when a family can just remember how much fun that had
This wasn’t about stand still and smiling
Even forgetting the west wind with flies…they did not even notice!
photo shoots all about being yourselves, while creating something amazing.
If you have some special people coming together, it would be great to hear what you have in mind and I wold love to help.
call Susan - 732-703-2752 to talk about your ideas
I still love this one… it is from 2003. Wasn’t the easiest part of my life as I had just become a single mom. My oldest had this idea that raising a seeing eye was going to be easy & only a few months. “I can take him to high school classes with me and you won’t have to do anything plus he’ll be gone before I go.!” Okay, she learned how difficult being responsible really was! This photo shoot did not go as planned yet it is still on my wall.
