Going Back - If you could go back in time and tell yourself something, what would it be? How far back would you go?
Art Challenges - You're Invited!I'd like to present weekly themes to not just myself, but anyone who'd care to have fun and participate! Not only does this project challenge yourself, but I'd also like to present a way to get your work out there and noticed more. I will be featuring anyone who participates, in this journal which will be on my front page with a few rotating features in the custom box. I will put up a theme each Monday, and there is no time limit on any one theme. Do them when you feel like it!
These themes will be thought provoking at best, to explore your talents and yourself.
(By the way, you don't have to title your deviation with the theme name)

_{"Always remember to be yourself..."
If I could go back in time and say one thing to myself, that would be it. Throughout my life, I realized that, perhaps if someone had said that to me when I was a child at a specific period of events, it would have given me a firmer grasp on the situation. I can't even tell you how many times I've been told I have to change something about myself. You can't say that, can't do that, you know. I'm sure we've all been there. For the longest time, I changed as others wanted me to. It ruined a great relationship I had with someone, and it took that painful event to see I didn't like how others were trying to mold me. So, to me, 'Always remember to be yourself' would be  invaluable advice that I would have clung to. I cling to it now, and I'm happier for it! <3}

I was watching an anime music video mix on Youtube, and happened to pause on an image I thought would be an awesome reference. And it was, and worked so well for this challenge. I was aiming for a screenshot look, but either way I am satisfied with this.
