Powerful Quotes by Mickala 

\\n

\\u25cf I feel that photos are important and should be printed, even in our social media-driven world. 

\\n

\\u25cf We\\u2019re all artists and we all have our own individual stuff. I\\u2019m really good friends with lots of local photographers around here. I don\\u2019t see them as competition. I see them as being in the same workforce as me. 

\\n

\\u25cf Life\\u2019s too short to just sit around feeling sorry for yourself. I know that there\\u2019s more people out there with more horrible stories, and I know that my stories are nothing compared to theirs. I will get on with my life, tolerate the pain, and adjust. 

\\n

\\u25cf I don\\u2019t have many bridezillas because I always try to take on the stress that they\\u2019re not meant to have.
