Resolutions


  
at this time of the year, soon after the new year’s day craziness people sit down with the previous year at hand and look to make resolutions for the coming year. i on the other hand haven’t done either. i spoke to a young woman today, who profoundly said she doesn’t make resolutions but she does have a goal to live a better life this year than last year.
for me i live life with one goal-regardless of the old year or the new year- and that is to Live. life is much fun when it unfolds unexpectedly.
i could be met by an unexpected cliché of meeting someone when they’re about to leave from close to where you are and won’t see them in a long time. my share of this one was today, met a sweet little 4year old and also said goodbye.
but that wasn’t all for one day, i found courage to meet a stranger and look into his eyes with my camera and capture his story. an unexpected truth of life and living. when he sits on the side of the street day after day expecting nothing but just another chance to breathe life the next day. and on the other side of the coin, i met a hungry woman and her children who have just stopped expecting anything.
but when life decides to treat you, you will unexpectedly sneeze and fart at the same time in a bus full of people before the engine starts, just so no one will miss the moment! when that happens, gawd dayem embarrassing as is, look ahead and don’t blink and hope to God that no one laughs!
all this was just today. i wonder what tomorrow holds!
