Allow me to gloat... :)
+ So I randomly decided to create another online space to showcase my photography.
+ I don't advertise it or tell any of my friends/family about it or anything.
+ I even checked the privacy thing, I didn't want my new space to be searchable by Google or Yahoo.
+ I'm completely quiet about it because I'm still acquainting myself with WordPress's new GUI and everything that comes with it.
+ Suddenly I receive an influx of comments (compliments even) from people all over the world, people I don't know.
+ I was wondering how I was found and sorts... because it just seemed impossible, to be found out unless I was featured or something.
+ So I decided to check my Wordpress Dashboard and lo and behold:
+ I've been featured in the jump-page's HAWT POST. ^_^ WOOTWOOT!
+ Who would've thought? I never imagined this ever.
+ So now I'm gloating, cause I'm proud of myself that way.
+ Aren't you guys proud of me, in one way or the other? :) Hahahah.
+ Seriously, though, this is one delightful surprise.
+ So you guys know, this is my new photography portfolio: http://kismetembrace.wordpress.com
--I'm building it step by step. Soon enough LightWritten stuff will be taken down and transferred there.
+ Have a go at it there, and comments are definitely love. :)

For those who were wondering:
Why KismetEmbrace?
+ Kismet means destiny or fate; Embrace in this context is synonymous to acceptance.
+ I'm at a point in my life where I'm trying to come to terms with my destiny or fate without question. Although I've said that I accept and believe that God has plans and there is always a reason, sometimes I catch myself doubting my cause. And I fight and I end up crying out of frustration. I realize that somehow my doubt and frustration is futile because I'm not learning what I ought to learn. I end up fighting unnecessary battles. And after all these cycles, I know that I'm tired of fighting the unnecessary battles. I just want to live and let live and be better.
+ I thought of Kismet Embrace as some kind of self-fulfilling prophecy, a kind of personal mantra, so I could remind myself to take life as it is: To embrace destiny and fate, and hopefully make the best out of it. :)
