Lately I have felt like I have been pulled in many directions and have spread myself too thin. I put myself in this situation. I knew I had lots of things to be grateful for. One thing that has really consumed my thoughts has been my photography business. I have trying to improve my camera handling skills, creativity and really focus on where I wanted my business to go. As I was driving down the road having a crappy, awful, no good, very bad day I saw this sign. I drove past it and kept thinking about it nearly a mile down the road. I flipped and made a U turn and literally sat in front of the sign for a good 10 minutes. I thought a lot about the words 'Be prepared to stop'. I stopped dwelling on my crappy day and did some praying and meditation on where I should go. I have several things that I will be announcing over the next few weeks on my photography blogsite.....
A few hours later I went with my niece and brother in law to Hardware Ranch to spend some time with my camera. I saw the sun peek out through the clouds and saw beautiful blue sky and had to take this picture because it was such a stark contrast to my earlier awfully bleak day.
One thing I have decided to do be a better blogger ;-) and photographer is do a 365 photo challenge. I am going to take my beautiful camera with me each day in my gigongous purse and take at least one picture of something that I do or see. (despite the fact that I am somewhat cheating since this picture was from earlier in the week and not literally from today)
Here's to making a beautiful day 2 tomorrow............
That sounds like a great goal--can't wait to see all your great photos!
Hope your day is better today! (:
It is hard when you get stuck in a rut. My friend does a picture everyday for a 365 scrapbook project. Maybe a point and shoot would help you focus more on your daily routine and find happiness there. If that makes sense. good luck, my friend and congrats on the loser progress. Oh how I am jealous of that! (seriously, I am...)
