Resolved
I’m here in Arizona
recovering from vacation and COVID.
Like a camera
with poor resolution,
my life has
become unfocused.
I resolve to
bring more clarity to my habits of prayer,
exercises, nutrition,
regular sleep and writing,
before I return
home to Colorado.
Good Advice
I don’t pretend
to understand resolution,
pixels,
monochrome cameras or Bayer filters.
I just know when
I told others of my Kenya plans,
many advised me
to take a good camera.
I thought my
little Canon would be good enough.
But what looked
like gold puddles to my camera
looked like
majestic lions to my sister’s.
On mine you can
see a monkey silhouette.
On a friend’s, a
mama monkey cuddled her baby.
Yes, those are
elephants on my camera.
But on other
cameras, you can count the wrinkles.
Yay for PhotoCircle
where our tour group shares pics.
But this year, I’m
making a resolution resolution.
Before my next
trip, I’m getting a better camera.
Second Thought Vacation
Second thought (going
to Africa)
overpowered
first thought (going to Italy),
with some
regret and trepidation
(But I wanted
to go to Italy.
Is going to
Africa safe?)
But second
thought turned out fine.
Kenya was great!
On Second Thought
Going forward
with thrust!
Doing this? A
must.
There’s no
stopping now.
Full speed and
how!
No turning back.
Stay right on
track.
Not left nor
right.
Goal lies in
sight.
But on second
thought,
maybe not.
Over Thinking
If I only had
second thoughts.
it would simply
be amusing,
It’s about the
twentieth thought
when it becomes
confusing.
Let’s Get Serious
Jesus
said to
prioritize
loving God
and loving
others.
Let’s get
serious
about love.
If God
Creator of the Universe
tells us to
pray,
shouldn’t we
take it seriously?
