Shoes

Shoes. Ever wondered what the world would look like if shoes never existed. We would all be parading the earth bare feeted!
They complement our dress sense and for most, they hide a multitude of sins or not so good features: chipped nail polish, uneven toe nails, uneven toes,long shovel like nails....

Shoes remind me of the fact that for every occassion, there is a shoe. The wedges, stilletos, flats, trainers, etc.. Just like for every role in life. As a man: in the office, the boss shoe or the subordinate shoe, at home: the priest shoe, husband shoe, lover shoe, father shoe, provider shoe
As the woman: in the market, the seller shoe,the buyer shoe, at home: the mummy shoe, lover shoe, helper shoe,etc.

We hate some shoes while we absolutely love some. Some we have over worn, others we wear out of compulsion. We take care of some while we also are mean to others. Take care of all your shoes while you still have them. Play your roles properly while you are still needed. Remember some shoes cannot be mended. Suedes hate moisture just as patents dread heat!

Faces

My experiment. Each of these pictures were taken by me using my regular nokia camera phone. I think i had started toying with the photography idea at this point. Funny how life evolves. I always saw myself as a desk person. Now, i cannot seat still! Still have a lot to do. I was going through a fellow photogarpher's blog and i was looking at the photography jobs he posted, and i said to myself "This is me someday....very soon".

Mr. Mine

I will memorise your face
the shape of your nose
the curve of those lips
your piercing eyes
those ever listening ears
i will memorise.....
so when you are not here
my memories will keep me
because i will remember.....

Year End Blues...

It is almost a month to christmas and that dreaded feeling at the end of the year is here again.
Not the fear of the "ember" months but...the feeling that the year is over and lists of targets for the year still has pending issues on it.

My lists kind of evolved during the year. I quit my job. That was part of the plan. Got into and out of a particular relationship. Not part of the plan. Strange year it has been. Good strange and not so good strange.

I am happy that so far, I was able to do some of the unexpected...of me...if i must say so myself....not telling...i know what i mean..

So, I am not scared of the year end. Somethings can still happen. That money will still come, those connectons can still be made, Mr Right could still surface , some wrongs can be made right. There is still time. There is still today.

Better

I read a piece somewhere this week which said when God takes something from you, it is because He wants to give you something better. I wonder how true that is? What if you wonder if there can anything be better than what was taken? But, i guess there is always a better job, a better car, a better woman, a better house.....better than the good that was taken.

Rantings of a new blogger

I have been accused of being a better communicator in black and white than with words...
Wonder what that says about me....

I want to be clean inside
Be able to stand before you
Without fear or regret
Of the foolish, stupid, dirty
Thoughts I have had...
I want to be clean inside.
