The story of Bowling Green, Kentucky and all the people who live, work, play, and visit here ~ one photo at a time.

My name is Crystal and I thought it would be fun and enlightening to create a catalog of our city’s inhabitants, to show the diversity and character in our city. (I was inspired by the Humans of New York page.) With that being said, I hope to bring a daily glimpse into the lives of the People of Bowling Green, Kentucky to the world. In January of 2016, I added another photographer to the team - Sydney Sims, a senior at BGHS.

Just to Be Clear... 06/27/2020

Just to Be Clear... All of my life, I took a bit of pride in the fact that I had a pretty diverse group of friends. My best friend in high school was gay, although he did not come out [even to me!] until many years later. When I was four years old, my best friend in my apartment complex was the little black boy that li...

Attention People of Bowling!

Please email me your submissions, include photo, photog, and anything to be included in the caption! If you need suggestions on what to write, I always had luck listing the location, why they were there and asking the subject a question, like What is the most adverse thing you've had to over come? or Where is the coolest place you've ever been?

Every post will have list the photographers credit and subject name (or not if you want to be anonymous)...

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

When I look at this question, I wonder if other people had a choice when deciding what they "want" to be. For me, there was no "want" in it. It was more like; What do you "have" to be/"Get" to be when you grow up, for me. I knew from a very young age that I was only really good at one thing. Sure, I could do other things, but music & performance were the only things that came naturally and easy to me and were certainly the most fulfilling things in my life. I personally feel that our "calling" in life is made clear to us by God. He uses things like Depression and misery to show us that we're not doing what we are suppose to be doing in life. On the contrary, he uses happiness & contentment to make us sure of our decision to pursue what we were meant to. I have truly enjoyed every single day of work that has been related to music, acting, and the performing arts. I am beyond blessed that I was able to pursue these things in college and since have been able to make a career out of them. God rewards those who trust the signals that he provides.
