The main reason that I initially picked this picture today was it was the first thing that popped up when I opened iPhoto. So, that’s a pretty lame reason, but the more I looked at it, the more it fit. That may be just because its easy to look at something and correlate it, but whatever.

Now that you’ve seen the pick, I’ll explain what I see this time around. For one, its a sunset and just a little while ago, the sun set on another work week. In some ways I’m glad, but on the flip side I get depressed. Living alone has some distinct disadvantages. I liked it at home. I didn’t need the interaction necessarily, but I enjoy the presence of others. And if I have something to say, there is someone to listen. Sure, I have friends online that I chat with (thank you friends!!!), but for some reason I just want to be around people. For example, Wednesday, I was just working on some stuff on my laptop at the church after a meeting. Actually there were three of us just absorbed in doing stuff on our computers, but I didn’t want to leave once I got some questions answered. I just enjoyed having the other guys around. I guess most of my family is the same way, and that’s why I could live live with my parents even as an adult. High levels of interaction aren’t required, just your presence. Some people really won’t get how I can be this way, but others will totally get it. To tie back to the picture, it’s kinda dark overall with highlights of the sun. So, I identify my depression yet sense of week’s end with it.
cheers!
I love this pic! To me that bottom left corner says that hope never gives up, no matter how heavy the dark is.
And I totally get what you mean. I don’t like small talk – too much work. If you don’t really have anything to say, just be. You are good enough. Talk only if you have something that you think will make a difference.
