Have you ever felt yourself clamming up on making a final decision?  Final answer!  It all seems so consequential, so monumental and concrete making that final decision. So much so that I've created a pretty good life and attitude of "just going with it".  No decisions here, I'll just do what feels right. However, doing what feels right involves quite a bit of living in the moment.  Ah yes, living in the moment is Oh soO fantastic and has taken me on amazing adventures and unforgettable experiences, but there comes a point when a girl has just GOT to start making plans and following through. 
Some might say, "set yourself goals" and I'd say back that goals are for sport, what I have in mind is a Plan! A plan that I absolutely MUST follow through with because if I don't... I will simply disappoint and I hate disappointment. This effort is for me. I will finish. 
The Plan: 
A photograph a day for one year. 
Yes, it has been done and it is currently being done, but it's certainly has not been done by me! I struggle with finishing, but finish I will. 
A deadline a day on the Ramey Daily. 
Day 1
Everyday that we wake and face the world we begin creating advertisements of self promotion. It's plain evolution. Everyone wants to be pretty.  I feel specifically empowered when I create self portraits because they lets me advertise a mood that I otherwise could not. Oftentimes I have a difficult time expressing my moods in words. But, when I create a self portraits, I try not to think, however I sit back and follow the mood.  
I'm beginning this blog with a self portrait to show you Me; a striving artist in an unfriendly economy at the beginning of her photo resolution!
