Memories

I love to take pictures with my Canon Rebel. Photography has been a hobby of mine all my life. Photos are frozen time, they remind us of the good times. Sometimes they remind us of not so good times like the photo of my car after a fender-bender.

Memories are a lot like photos of the mind. At least I remember past events in picture form, not sure whether everyone does.

Some of those picture memories changed my life. I never tried to draw anything after the third grade in elementary school. My art teacher said my drawings were horrible. She never realized what her words did to me. Even today I am fearful of trying to draw anything. I know that is silly, to let something that happened so long ago affect me today.

I couldn’t draw pictures, so I used a camera to draw my pictures for me. I love taking pictures.
