This is my entry for the 'Beginnings' challenge at :iconmanipchallenges: at Intermediate level

I am what I am, and that's who I want to be
The years have added layers of non-me
Stripped back to the truth - what lies in wait?
The me I don't know, but truly anticipate
A new beginning, but back to the start
Finding the real me.... right from the heart.

oh..you are unique! I have my daughter's head on the outside who are into two halves and inside it's the head of Arwen from "lord of the rings" because she loves the movie! So it is not really the same. Only the concept behind:D love your piece:heart:

Thank you - I really wanted to try to to something different for this challenge, there has been a lot of criticism floating around dA that manipulations are becoming too 'samey'. It's always great if you can get the inspiration for something different, but not always easy - challenges often give us that inspiration :D

i know what you mean. it is hard breaking away from the herd, but when you look at all the favorites, the same is what everyone picks and wants anyway. :heart:
