Note No. 6998

 

This one’s a short one. 

Short and sweet.

This is a time for honoring.

For honoring each other.

Turning the damn phone off when someone’s talking, 

especially when they’re talking to you.

To show that

I value you 

through action.

This is a time for honoring ourselves.

You’ve done a lot of work, 

but things

just 

take 

time. 

Pull yourself outta that grave, honey. 

Lets walk.

If it ain’t working,

it aint working. 

I went on Instagram this evening after feeling quite exhausted and frustrated from working on the computer all day, and the first post I saw was a series of analog shots, a barn, a brush-lined road, a street sign...and a caption about walking, evening walks. 

And it saved me. 

I was reminded of the beauty of solitude, and solo-strolls, and unspectacular spring sunsets. It was warm. I felt warm inside.

And I was thankful that this person had taken those frames for the pure solace of shooting film for no one.
