Tara Sulman

Usually, I know where to start when it comes to these things. Hi, my name is Tara. I’m this age, and I live in this place. It doesn’t seem like the right thing to start off with. I have to sit back and ask myself, “What in the hell do people want to know about me?” Am I going to come across as boring? Do people want my life story. “I was born on …”

All of that seems like overkill. So, what is there to tell?

My name is Tara. Is that part of my identity even important online? My little user name here is tsulman … that’s my identity, at least when I’m posting on this blog.

I am a photographer that runs a studio in South Georgia. I am not native to Georgia, but am actually from Florida. Okay, actually I’ve lived in Florida, Tennessee, Alabama, and Georgia. I’ve always felt and said I am from Florida though. I was born and raised in Orlando. Yes, I am a Disney fanatic. I love my job, and being able to live the dream. I photograph mostly high school seniors and weddings. It is my joy.

I’m 29. The last year of my 20s. You’ll be sure to see some posts on that I can promise. I’m divorced, but it wasn’t an ugly divorce. It was just a regular “we’re not in love” and “we can’t communicate” and “I want you happy” divorce. I wish him nothing less than the very best in his life.

I am now in a long distance relationship, and have been for over a year and a half now. It really seems more like five years at this rate. He’s in Delaware currently and finishing up college. We met online in a weird twisted way, but life wanted us together. We’ve both fought very hard and strived to maintain what we’ve created. This is no normal relationship, but instead the greatest journey of my life. Prepare for blogs about him that are really sappy.

So, why am I here? What’s the real point in all of this?

Well, in 2006/2007 a lot of shit went down in a very short amount of time. By April of 2006 I had my first panic attack. Life spiraled out of control and for the past near 8 years I have being battling anxiety, panic, agoraphobia, and a list of worries and fears too long even for a blog. I feel like I have a lot to say. I have a lot to tell the world. I have come to terms with a lot of things in my life, but I am still growing as a human.

I wanted a palce to put down all of my thoughts, fears, feelings, truths. Join me on my journey on wordpress. I promise it won't be boring. :)
