Happy New Year

Well...it's 2010 already! Where to go and what to do? I need to invest in a couple of photography classes and boost my confidence with shooting portraits! I need test books and practice with subjects. Hopefully one day, I will have this thing up and going with some pics.

Time

Well.
Time has come and gone. I cannot seem to agree with myself whether or not I really want to keep a blog.
I should as it would keep me going learning, practicing photography more often than I do.

Time. I need to balance my time to better serve myself, my God, my family.

FaceBook

Well, I joined facebook the other day and started to see many of my junior high ans high school friends on there. WOw! people really disperse throughout the world based on work and family. I never imagined many of them doing what they do and living where they live!
Anyhow, picked up a 50D that i need to pay for now! Waiting for my 30D to come back from Canon for cleaning.
Celebrated my wife's birthday yesterday....bummer she's not feeling well.
Well...today is nfl playoffs...and I am working.
love my family, thankful for everything. See ya when i get home!!

In the Morning

Early morning dancing water droplets
across my wind battered face,
looking up into all His Glory
questioning my relevance here,
searching, pondering uselessly
as i have no answers;
yet this morning, cold obnoxious rain
falls sideways against me,
I smile;
For her,
my one, my only, my miscalculated love
of warmth and buried treasure,
sometimes I see it, mostly I fail,
but today,
on this morning
I see her more abundantly now.

Touch

The evening touch
of some time ago,
nearly forgotten
yet still admired,
a warming sensation
and softly undone,
a collaboration of
memories, of longings,
if even only for brief
we shared it together.
again I love you,
again I forgive.

New Year Commeth

New Years is on the way. A new day, a new year, a new begginning? Quite the contrary. The same place and the same people dealing in and out with the same of old, just on a different day.
Day to day struggles
cast shadows on my enlightenment
and terms undisclosed imprison me.
give my thoughts and early rising thoughts
to He that washed away all that I was
and life beckons me to change.
what is new to you and to me
if all we have is a memory
of what was then.
is it me that crawls into the old
and picks up stale pieces of
broken life?
this is new, this is old,
close my eyes and my hands fold.

Christmas

And on this day, a Savior was born. We celebrated Christmas with giving and receiving and constantly reinforcing the reason we all are here and why we remember this season. Our kids had a fantastic Christmas an can only hope that you and yours did as well.
It was difficult, but it was time to put away differences and our dis likes and get on with our celebration. After all, it's not about us, it's about Him, who was sent for us.
Now,
as we swept our emotions and differences under the carpet, shall we leave them there, or start the New Year with some much needed house cleaning? Only time will tell.
