The world wants to be photographed.
The world wants to be seen.
It wants to be known.
A camera is not required.
Just open your eyes.
Is the world shy?
Does it like to play
hide and seek?
Sometimes when least expected,
suddenly it says,
“Here I am.”
Drop everything else
and pay attention
even if, like me,
you are doing
Something Terribly Important.

Hey Danny -- Did I tell you about the person who said, “If you see a glass as half empty -- get a smaller glass and stop your bitching.”
