life's so funny....when u take a step back and really take in what is going on around u....u notice things....well i work at a custard stand so i see alot of people eating all of the time....and i have noticed...after each bite, instead of enjoying the bite or lick they just took, they are instead getting ready and anticipating the next bite....i have come to think that we tend to treat life in the same manner....instead of taking each day as a little gift and as something to enjoy, we are already anticipating what tomorrow may bring or what the future holds for us......i dunno....just one of the many things i ponder from time to time......i have also had an epiphany! i know what im passionate about! (other than shopping that is!)......i love photography! i love taking pictures and seeing how they turn out! i love looking back on old pictures and remembering the good times i had! a picture is a way to capture a mere moment in time forever......i love the fact that the pictures will outlast those who are in them......and so they will be shared with the future generations as well.......i just wish that photography had a bigger career base then it does........i dont wanna be a starving artist (hmmmmmmm.......im starving right now...but im not an artist yet....so in the future i hope to flip flop these two! become an artist and not be starving! lol)......i want a job that i can make alot of money doing! if i am comfortable financially then i can help fund my hobby of taking photos.......that way i can have the best of both worlds........=)

wow this entry rox! i mostly think about the future and what tomorrow brings, and i should really take it one day at a time. thank you for posting this entry! and im so glad that you found something your passionate about...everyone needs something they love...i know for me its dancing. when i dance all my worries go away nothing matters but the music and the moves. always keep photography in your mind and always work towards it. you can do what you want and if this is than go for it.
I love watching Noah eat ice cream because he does savor every bite. He makes it last so long. He always tells me that it is so good that he wants it to last forever. I, on the other hand, am always looking ahead. I need to start taking lessons on life from him.
Sounds like a great plan! I know what you mean about not savoring each day...and I\'m guilty of it myself. I will try not to do that today. Have a great day!
Thanks... for opening my eyes.I will try to live more in the moment!! You rock!
awwww thats true! i look to the future for good things instead of REALLY enjoying what is going on in the RIGHT NOW....i should try to do that eh!
I do the same thing. Eat my food as fast as I can in order to get it over with. I live life like it\'s something I just have to hurry up and get through. Thanks for the thoughts! XOXOXOXOXOXOXO
