Playing

I haven’t forgotten how to play. I just haven’t made time for it. I started reading a post from Exploring Newness and the first line “I had a blast playing with filters on this photo” really hit me. I’m scraping a few minutes together daily to take a few frames, maybe a basic edit and a few words.

When I started out blogging it felt more like playing. I’ve gotten away from that and some fun it initially gave me because I’ve forgotten to just play around with it. To stop taking it too seriously. Time to just experiment and throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks.

It looks like I’ll have to start that mindset tomorrow because again I’m out of time.


Random Thoughts of the Day

  • Not everyone can work alone effectively.
  • If you want to see how fast time goes by, get a daily calendar.
  • I think I saw a picture of myself that is going to motivate me to lose some weight.
  • When you live close to the woods it’s a fine line between being one with nature outside and having nature uninvited guest pop in.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
