Moments
Life is about trudging through the bullshit to get to the really cool moments, isn't it? Isn't that what it all sort of boils down to?
Fortunately I spotted a couple of photos yesterday as they were posted to Facebook. Don't we live in a great world? Two minutes after a photo is snapped it can be sent all over the world. Remember waiting for the pictures to be developed? I should tell my kids about that they'd laugh their asses off. Photos from a graduation would be passed around in August sometime.
Anyhow...I had to put up the photo of Matt at his prom because there's a slight chance that it may embarass him.
Also, Mom and her grandkids is up there because that's one of the moments I was talking about. The picture tells a thousand words, right? More like a million right there.
And you know what I thought when I first glanced at it?
"Man, Mom is incredible."
That's it. Plain and simple. A photo that can muster up a million words and I could only think of four.
The thing about life is that we trudge to the bullshit to get to a moment...
...and a slight moment, in the middle of a routine, hard-working day, can stop you in your tracks because of a simple beauty of that moment.
Sure glad I didn't have to wait for the photos to get back from CVS.
