Photos are strange and wonderful things. If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, then you know that I plan on moving for the first time in a long long LONG time once restrictions lift and things on my home can finish getting done. In preparation, we’ve been going through lots of boxes that have been squirreled away, and I can’t tell you how many of those are old photographs. It’s a strange experience to sit there and go through your own personal time capsule… not just pictures of my own kids when they were little (and see how young I was lol), but the pics of when my husband and I were little and then the ones of when our parents were little that we inherited from when their things passed on to us. Second Life pictures are not quite so dramatic because even when you’ve been here a really long time like me (more than 13 years!), you still don’t “grow up.” On the other hand, technology and styles most definitely change, and it’s great fun to walk down memory lane in Second Life too… I’ve been with my partner for more than 12 years, and it’s absolutely amazing to find that we actually look younger in those early photographs lol! The point I’m rambling towards is that to me, each and every photo matters… yes, some are definitely better than others, but each one marks a point in time, a memory, an attitude, a look of my life here on the grid. And those memories in pictures, well, sometimes they’re what you really need to help you remember all those little details you tend to forget in the vastness of time and the madness of life… Here’s to making memories, one moment, one picture, at a time!
