Hello, my name is Sarah Jane, I'm a girl who has a million hopes and dreams. I often carry around a little note book full of thoughts and ideas. I have many passions; photography, writing, digital art and teaching and working with children are just a few of the many aspects I love about my life!

Photography is more than just capturing the beauty of the world. It always reveals the truth, the vulnerability, and emotions of people. For the instant that you capture a moment, it remembers the tiniest details long after you have forgotten everything. Photography allows me to see the world in a closer view; I never miss the tiny ladybug on a leaf, or the little fairywren quietly perched in a tree. It helps me become more aware of my surroundings and appreciate all the beauty around me.

Spirituality is a blessing in my life. Since I began studying more about Buddhism, it has become my way of life. It has been my light of guidance through tough times, and helped me understand a deeper part of myself. My inner energy has become more positive and optimistic every day. I became particularly inspired by Buddhism in 2011, when I was lucky enough to see the Dalai Lama in person at a conference in Melbourne. As soon as he entered the room, it was as though there was peace surrounding, and protecting us. It was the most enlightening experience. His simple key ideas of Buddhism; kindness, honesty, compassion for all, is a part of my soul. I couldn't imagine a life without it.

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly. ~Buddha

You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul. ~Swami Vivekananda

Teaching young children is not just my life career, but my life passion, and vocation! As a young teenager I worked in childcare centres and kindergartens, and worked my way to becoming a Primary/Highschool teacher. I am still studying and learning more and more every day, which is so exciting and anticipating for me. I am currently working in an Afterschool Care program, teaching sport and art as apart of the program activities. I am very adamant about anti-bullying. As a young child I went through traumatic experiences being bullied by students and even a teacher, so I am very inspired to help create a safer, positive environment for children.



Everyone here on earth are experiencing the journey of life, determined to eventually experience the blissful state of happiness. Everyone has their own story to tell too. I often imagine a person’s life through an old film playing in a beautiful, large theatre. The audience and I are sitting in awe, captivated by the person in the film. It is a mesmerizing flash through their life, in which there is drama, romance, thrills, mysteries, comedy, adventures; all in one incredible film.



I love meeting new people, so please drop by and say hello! I would love to get to know you too! I'm very friendly so please stop by and say hello sometime. I look forward to finding more about you and viewing your gallery too!


(I still have my 2 part time jobs, plus Uni, so this leaves me very little time for some of the things I love, like dA. So please bear with me if I'm a little slow at replying, I promise I will get back to you no matter what)

Merci!
