Samyra, the many pictures of you I have seen are often in states of rejoicing with life, and/or celebrating milestones with family and friends. From those pictures it seems the essence of who you are climaxes from a particular type of joy and knowing that is in your eyes that captures something intangible at the same time capturing what is beautiful within you that seems to enlighten others around you. 

Having never met you I can assume things swirl around you in circles dancing and vibrating with others in a reciprocal way. This is a long way to describe magic. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 1.9.14

"I hear the syncopation of African drums. I hear them when I look at this man's image. The headdress is from the Plains, but the movement of the man has two rhythms: one, the heart beat, the other African. How many Africans over the centuries decided not to return home, and lived amongst the tribes?" - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 1.10.14
