# Hey Steemians lovers of art!
Today have been a difficult day... What happened just a few days ago in Venezuela ( a massive blackout that did enormous damage throughout the country ) It was repeated again, and we were without electricity for 28 hours. Catastrophes and much despair ... and asked to myself , we will see the end of all this? Will there be an end? The light that guides me is from an old and very worn candle ... will it be enough to pass through everything that comes?
"I'm just like my country, I'm young, scrappy, and hungry, and I'm not throwing away my shot"
-Lin Manuel Miranda (as Alexander Hamilton)
I think I can not feel more identified and understood than with that line. I am young, I want to be strong, and I am giving all the best stage of my life to the worst stage of my country. I hope everything is worth it in the end, or that fate gives me the opportunity to see other horizons.
Count your blessings
Well, this reflexion that I let you all here, after another big blackout in my country is my entry for the portrait photography contest that @nTopaz and @axeman are hosting, I don't wanna loose more time so...
I hope you liked the shoot I taked, (if it isn't very clear, the brilliant thing its a candle)
I want to say too that I just got sing up in @Artopium , a website where you can buy and sell your art! I would love if you take a moment to see my profile and take and look, maybe you'll find something you like , and now you can buy a print of the artwork that I just show you in this post :D

No matter how dark it is, we can always shine, we can always light a candle, we can always light ourselves with the light of our hearts <3
Let's stay strong
Hola Zaida! Me encantó tu foto. También soy de Venezuela y la verdad que lo que estamos pasando desde hace tiempo es atroz, y ahora con esto de la luz ha estado todo muy difícil, pero tengo la seguridad de que saldremos adelante todos, muy pronto. Veo que eres relativamente nueva en Steemit, yo también, estoy apenas aprendiendo. Te deseo suerte!
