    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Hey everyone, 

    Just a reminder of our photo competition with Fujifilm.

     

    In October we'll be hosting a huge exhibition of over 10,000 photographs by young people. Take part in our exhibition and upload your photos from this photo challenge by heading over to Fujifilm's website here.


    You can upload up to three photos and for each photo you upload, you’ll receive a free print, and for each photo that's displayed, Fujifilm will donate £2.50 to The Mix. There's a chance to win some prizes too!


    Good luck!

    Yay! 16th is "what's in your bag" actuallly going shopping in birmingham & hopeful plan to buy a lot of clothes cause need more new clothes so will show
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    C is for cuddles. I found a photo of some baby pigs having cuddles. My dad took the photo of them asleep in my mums arms.

    Thank you!!
    The 2 I entered where both images I took during the summer in London. One was from up high, taking a photo down on lots of people rushing about their lives and I can't remember the second one

    So I'm at the event and it's taken half hour to find one of my photos 😂 at least I found one

    This is exciting @GreenTea! Hope you're having a great time at the exhibition. :)

    Sounds awesome. Sad that I missed it. It is too far for me to go on my own and my parents don't know that I even entered anything so they would say no.
