3/22/13

There are moments in our lives we will remember. Things that made us extraordinarily happy or things that made us depressed or things that made us angry or things that made us feel loved. All these things and a lot more. 

Moments like these we don't really notice, until they're over and you think back about that night and your like  "that's what made it matter." It might be stupid things like someone smiling at you on your walk home after you've had a really horrible day. Or someone asking you how you are and they really want to know. Or even  having someone to hug you on a day that feels like the last. Those are moments that can't be forgotten. 

They're ingrained in our minds and our hearts. They're connected to people we loved, cared about, or maybe just tolerated. They're connected to feelings. 

I've always thought about how certain things would make such great pictures if I had my camera with me. Sunsets, family gatherings, friends, and just the world. But that would make life really hard. I'd always be trying to get the right shot. I wouldn't take the time to look around and enjoy life. 

The eye of a camera only shows so much and if you're always looking from behind it you'll never know what you could be missing. So take your picture, have that memory, but look up every once in a while and just live.
