I Need HELP!
"Sometimes I just need a little help
Why do I try to take the world all by myself
I'm asking you please, a little help
Tell me you'll be there when I need somebody else
I need help!"...
There. I had to say it before someone else did... and I know someone will. I had to do it. Sometimes I have ideas that I can't let go. I'm not saying that they are good ideas... I'm just saying that I have to follow through with them (because I have priorities, you know. And they aren't good ones either). My Christmas shopping isn't done... barely started. The few gifts that I have purchased, aren't wrapped... and I am not sure if I will even remember the "safe places" where I hid them. But this... this is what I needed to do on my very last weekend day off of 2020. I'm not disappointed. Actually, I'm pretty pleased.
I dedicate this to all of my photography friends... the ones that still invite me to shoot with them, knowing that I am almost never available to join them on their weekend adventures, but they still ask... or they make time to include me on a week day... and then they put up with me losing my glasses, forgetting where I laid my remote shutter release down, carrying a vase of fresh flowers while climbing through windows, forget my flashlight, forget my memory card, have a dead camera battery, watch me pull clown costumes out of my bag of props... or better yet, pull out their own clown costumes and join me in photos... and let's not even mention my extreme lack of any sense of direction (Do you have any idea where we are? Because I don't. How do I get back to the room with the _____ ? What door did we come in? How do we get out?) These people encourage me, inspire me, make me laugh, teach me things, make me think, make me wonder, give me hope, make me want to be better and basically... just keep me going. These people, that others warn me about... the ones that I meet in abandoned buildings, or online... are simply the best of the best. Thank you for including me in your lives. (And yes... I stood on this bridge, dressed like this ,alone, in broad daylight, with cars going by (probably because you gave me the courage to do this... so, let's all say it together.... I NEED HELP!!)
