Why I quit modelling.

i realised i’d never explained why or really when i actually quit modelling.
i had so many experiences over the course of half a decade of not being paid for jobs, not seeing any photos of myself and meeting entitled people.
this is my own experience in Sydney as a petite model; knowing i put in more effort than i needed to gives me the comfort that i can put this side hustle to rest.

poetic imagery: the Hebrew word for ‘proverb’ means comparison. they make the meaning vivid. there are comparisons and pictures in Proverbs. a gold ring in a pig snout is a beautiful woman without discretion. wise teaching is a fountain. grey hair is the crown of splendour. personification puts the non human into human terms. wisdom makes a speech at the city gate. folly is an unruly woman who is airheaded. elements of poetry make Proverbs easier to interpret and to put into practice or to memory -- Mon 6 April 2020

Reminds me a lot of how I decided to quit writing commercial fiction and start focusing on things that I actually want to be doing. We have one life to live and I'm really glad to see that you are choosing to live your truth.
