I Love Photos

 I woke up early yesterday morning. I then went trampolining in the afternoon, fell asleep for an hour before dinner and was ready for and in my bed by 7pm. I messed about on my phone for a while before eventually falling asleep at 8pm. Its currently 7:33am and I feel like Ive been awake for days. I got up at 2:30am and so far I've made myself some 'slimming word friendly' rice to freeze, defrosted my dinner (spaghetti bolognese) and some soup, and made myself and omelette. Its been a productive day already considering how early it is.

 In my morning nosy around my social media sites I spied the below photo.

Someone had then commented underneath saying 'that explains why he never took pictures of me'.

Its crazy to think you can read so much heartbreak from the truth in one sentence. Images and comments like this really hit home with me because its so true.

 I like to take pictures, its definitely one of my hobbies but its true, I take pictures of things that I fear I'll never see again - sunsets and sunrises, friends and family, cars and my favourite one: my dinners! I take these photos for myself to look back on in the future and to share with my friends and family who are far away and might be concerned about what I'm eating - especially now I'm following Slimming World!

I keep five photo albums in my room but one is only halfway in the process of being full. I have another album just patiently waiting to be filled. In these albums I have photos of random stuff that would be of no benefit or use to anyone other than me. My photos are of my fiends and my life, adventures I've been on and things I want to remember so that when I'm old I can prove to my grandchildren that I did indeed used to be very fun. I even keep photos from events that have passed and people I no longer talk to because they are a part of my past and something I want to remember forever, even if these people caused me to be upset at one time.

 Because thats just how life works. Things don't and won't always stick around forever and people are certainly more often than not very temporary. I'm a great believer in things happening for a reason though and everyone having an adventure laid out for them. Some people's adventures are marriage and having a family, some could be university or a job you really like. And if you lose someone somewhere along the line its only because they were needed elsewhere or perhaps theres just a better plan out there somewhere for you. You just need to keep an look out and then just maybe you'll find the great adventure that life has planned for you.
