Photo-a-Day - May: Day 30: My Personality

Photo-a-Day - May: Day 30: My Personality
This topic had me a bit of flummoxed, so I asked my friends how they would describe my personality.  While they came up with a lot of very complimentary words, I noticed that the first or second descriptor tended to be "eclectic".  Personally, I love that.  Then they started thinking of how to interpret that in a photo.  To a one, the first thing everyone thought of is my 1940's wooden tea tray in which I had inserted my needlepoint of "Coke".  

I love the convenience of the modern--my Kindle with LED light, Coke in a can (no ice), my Blackberry and my poor broken digital camera.  Equally, I love the elegance and graciousness of the antique--a print book, crystal handle holders and candlelight, a dip pin and ink, and a glass of Manzanilla sherry in lovely vintage crystal.  Oh, and my crystal ball which reflects my metaphysical/spiritual side.

I must say my friends were right; I'm a study in contrasts.  Somehow, it all works and, yes, does reflect my personality.  Perhaps not the one to come up with the adventure, but the first one to sign on, cerebral yet fanciful, organized but not fussy, and always a problem solver--after all, there are no problems, only solutions waiting to be found--and always optimistic.
