She’s four lenses away from 50. A Giant Squid is about to be born. I believe this to be true because Lensmaster boshemia writes compelling and thoughtful lenses.
Take a look at The Empath Next Door – Empathy. It explains the empath — a highly sensitive human being (my very short definition). She explains it in such a way that anyone should be able to understand what an empath is. It could be, I don’t know how likely, that you may even discover that what has been a mystery to you about your own self is finally solved. I do suspect that there are some empaths here.
She offers lessons in self-acceptance in Learning How To Live With Yourself and gets you to fall in love with, or be inspired again, by Max Ehrmann’s Desiderata.
Do you remember Craig Scott — whose sister, Rachael, was killed at Columbine High School? I’ll never forget his dignity and fortitude during that time. Boshemia’s lens, Columbine Survivors 10 Years Later, will not only give you an update about Craig but of other survivors as well. It’s a lens with substance. That substance is Lensmaster boshemia.
Wishing Ayngel (boshemia) a successful Giant Squidness.

Wonderful lensmaster pick, MiMi! Ayngel is already a Giant in terms of quality content.
Mimi, excellent job highlighting Boshemia. I read the empath lens and, Boshemia, I’m touched by your writing style. Pointed, concise, and yet deep and thought provoking. An amazing skill and talent.

I don’t really know what to say except for thank you for your kind words. There is no way to express how much what you have written here means to me. I’m working on lens number 50 right now, but Giant is about so much more to me.
It has meant finding the confidence to pursue a dream that I was hiding in the shadows for a very long time. To be a writer, to paint pictures for others and help them see a different life, a different point of view, to help them connect with something they might not have otherwise.
I write for a lot of reasons, but like every writer what is really important is not what I am writing, but who is reading. Thank you for reading.
And Keem, how wonderfully sweet you are. I will carry your words with me…
You’re quite welcome, Ayngel. Love your work.
Thank you Chef and Erica!
