Picture this:

a short man wearing a purple swishy jump suit, hip in the US in the late 1980s.
a family, mother, father, baby, asleep under the shade of a tree near the ocean.
a wrinkly, hunch back woman walking so slowly that you have to check twice to see if she's even moving.

Picture this:

a woman in her mid 30s walking, taking pictures, and running with a little brown yuppy dog.
a man with semi-long black hair doing the "japanese shuffle", a.k.a. barely jogging.
a few kids smiling, throwing a single leaf into the air and watching the wind catch it and twirl it around.

Picture this:

a woman, slowly dancing, very quaint, dressed in traditional clothing, skin so pale, lips so red.
a couple, the woman wearing a hat to cover her face from the sun, the man wearing a fanny pack, dressed in workout clothes, walking along the beach.
a boy, about 11 yrs. old, taking a break from fishing, peeking over the ledge to watch the American pass by.

Picture this:

a man, elderly, sitting under the shade of a tree on a mat, reading a book.
a man, "hiding" from the view of others, peeing.
a group of teenage girls, wearing 3 to 4 inch heel, dressed in their finest hanging out at a bbq on the beach.


Life is so short. I pray that I am able to take it ALL in, every detail.
