I deliberately spent the next ten years not taking a camera on holidays but relying on my journaling instead. Years later, those journals bring back memories more profoundly than a photo album or video ever could. So keep writing (even though you WILL get another camera in some serendipitous fashion and be able to also take those wonderful pictures as well.Wilno Station Innhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08079898813649656084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7825862861569609473.post-85239552076139693402011-03-02T13:06:14.629-05:002011-03-02T13:06:14.629-05:00I hope one finds its way to you..... until then......I hope one finds its way to you..... until then.... wishing you many happy photographs to store in your mind & heart.Stephiniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15132605618075175372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7825862861569609473.post-61577643624829248662011-02-27T11:00:58.704-05:002011-02-27T11:00:58.704-05:00Being camera-less is definitely a form of torture ...Being camera-less is definitely a form of torture in my books ~ especially with wee folk in the house offering you those precious picture opportunities again and again. Hoping a camera finds its way to you soon! <br />I must say though Steph, you have a wonderful gift of painting pictures with your words. To read what you just wrote had me seeing those perfect shots in my minds eye.<br />xo<br />ShantiTwigandToadstoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03408437451671761958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7825862861569609473.post-2329991243655391752011-02-27T09:30:38.732-05:002011-02-27T09:30:38.732-05:00By writing the moment down like you did is like a ...By writing the moment down like you did is like a picture in words. You will never forget those images now, as long as you live. I find that when I don't have a camera and I want to take a picture of something I use my mental camera. Point and shoot. The image is engrained in my mind and able to be brought to the surface whenever I wish. My photo gallery in my head, so to speak. And as bad as I am about uploading pictures onto the computer, they are probably more useful in my memory.<br />I love the quote "Memories are all that we ever really own." (Except when we get dementia or alzheimers, but let's not go there:)<br /><br />P.S. Save your change in a little container. Soon you will have enough for that camera.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7825862861569609473.post-76244469792170498262011-02-27T09:00:13.667-05:002011-02-27T09:00:13.667-05:00Oh, Stephanie, my heart goes out to you.
