Amber Vanity

Mottled by the watery lens of time – two decades ago and counting – the photos from 2005’s Divine Diva Tour: A Fairy’s Tale bring me back to a section of my life that feels very different from where I am today. A few weeks from 50, I look back at the year I turned 30 and reflect on how things have changed. In so many ways I was so serious then – perhaps serious isn’t the most accurate word – earnest, seriously earnest, may be more apt. It’s there in my expressions, there in my lugubrious prose. While I can now view much of it as humorous and tinged with irony, I could never quite laugh or find silliness in any of it then. There has been a great deal of healing and growth in re-examining this project, something that wasn’t close to possible twenty years ago.

The next chapter of this divine saga begins tomorrow…
