Hello,
    I am a photographer, I love taking pictures.
    I am currently in a relationship in which I am incouraged to be myself. The concept of my ideas and desires being supported came hard to me. This actually took me years to grasp, but he says I am his butterfly and just starting to spread my wings.
   Any and all comments are encouraged as well as suggestions too. Thank you for the comments you leave as well as suggestions. I will try to find interesting photo opportunities so that I can give you wonderful pictures to view.
   Cheri
Update: 06-20-09
       I have found another family on Renderosity. All the people here are just incredible. Things are starting to change in a really positive direction for me. I am currently starting to do portraits, and am thinking about making this my full time position. One day I hope to tell my boss to jump in the lake. I think having a career that I love and can be proud of is now my goal.
Clarification 09-20-09
 I do portraits for family members and friends. I don't charge them because I need someone to practice with.
  Well I think I found something that I can be proud of. Not in photography, but in sales. I am my own boss. I can never be fired or laid off. I sell stuff I use and love. So I know I can stand behind it. Just need to build my customer base. Once I do, I will just do this and only this.
       Friends Always,
                            Cheri

So very sorry for your loss of your furbaby. She did not look well at your last post. She now is feeling much better at Rainbow Bridge where all our furbabies go. Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together to happily ever after.... Author unknown... For now she will be put into that special place in your heart and your thoughts. Comforting Hugs to you and your family.

Sigh........I don't think Steve read what you wrote sweetie. Even though we really had quite some time to prepare for this, tonight was still no easy task. We gave her a great home, and somethings that until we met, she'd never had in her life. Warmth, food, water,...and love. She repaid all of that in full, returning the love, albeit mostly for Cheri, whom she adopted as her human. There were a lot of laughs and good times over the years, a plenitude of fond memories, she was a good cat, and very special member of our extended family. She will be missed greatly, but I am so glad that she no longer has to struggle or just waste away. She was such a determined and stubborn little cuss, with incredible will and fight,.....fare thee well M'lady, till we next meet, now you can finally and truly just rest!

sad when a pet goes.... so many years, memories... but to die in the arms of someone who loved them, a little easier for them..

Wonder and cute photo, excellent work!

I'm really sorry for your loss! Everyone goes one day or another, even humans... We have our lives here that we pass and go away and we can't do anything about it! I hope she had a wonderful life and a good death. There are many humans on this earth who die on the ground and there is no-one even to shed a single tear on their grave... and worst, some people don't go to a grave at all... they die and are left to be eaten by the wild animals... She was no doubt a beautiful cat, and I hope she'll be happy with you who have done so much for it and who have given her a place in their home... I think I must envy this cat!

She'll be missed, but her spirit will always be with you.

I just read Dave's piece, and now am seeing your image and words ... I'm sure I'll dry my eyes in a few minutes ... but my heart goes out to you. It was the right time, and I'm glad she was able to be at home with you until the end ... but it's still hard ... I know how much you'll miss her, especially when you come in and sit at the computer. Much love to you both ...

So sorry for your loss of Momma Cat but you took care of her till the end, so don't fret, because you did your best for her.

I'm so very sorry.

Cheri, I am very sorry for your loss. Take comfort in the fact that you and Dave took her in and gave her a good life and you did right by her at the end. I spoke to an ex-coworker today who is an evangelical Christian. He lost his little cat earlier this year and is convinced that animals have souls. He believes he will meet her someday, just as in the Rainbow Bridge. I know it hurts but take heart. Perhaps he is right.

The story in Dave's gallery was heart felt and I found myself so engrossed. My thoughts are with you during your time of loss. I wish you the best.

{{{Hugs}}} It's always hard, no matter how long you have to prepare for it. But it's clear she had a live full of love, care and attention while she lived with you. I'm very sad to hear of her passing. tag0

I'm so sorry for your loss. Cats enrich our lives and it's hard to say goodbye. You did well by her and she was able to go in Dave's arms. The pain will ease, but the sweet memories are yours forever.

I'm so sorry about your loss. (I'll see Dave's piece in a moment too.) Losing a pet is like losing a sibling, it's losing a piece of your family. From glancing back, I can see that this was coming...My dearest sympathies, Cheri & Dave & Demon. I hope she'll live on in you forever. It's a beautiful tribute, and so nice that you gave it several languages as if to say Momma now belongs to the world...Much comfort & sympathy to you. May you bask in her light forever...
