The start, middle and the end. The most important elements in a story, and our human life story.

We live in a society that puts us in a box. We're celebrated when we conform, fit in and follow along. We learn to look outside of ourselves for assurance and get caught up in comparison.

Alena Turnley has bust out of the box an...

When I was little, I loved to run around carefree (and mostly nude or in skimpy crocheted bathers) in the sunshine on the beach. There was nothing to hide. No shame.
