It is interesting how reality of life can be relentless it
seems at times. Over the last few
months for me it seems like life has just been piling on problem after
problem. I find that a good way for me
to sometimes unwind and get out of myself and reflect on life is to take a trip
to New Hope Pa. It is a special place
for me and represents many beginning and ending parts of my life over the last
few years.
I got to into New Hope and had a late breakfast. I’m not really a breakfast person but it
really hit the spot. I continued the
day by talking a walk on the tow paths there in town. I like
to walk over on the NJ side of the river because there is this abandon old
train car that I love to read the graffiti on.
I have written about this train car in the past in August 2012. I find it so interesting to see the new
things that people have written. I also looked at the phrase that someone had written
a while back that I found so meaningful to my life, it is fading pretty
bad. I suspect that it may not be there
the next time that I get back to see it.
It is kind of how life is for me though, something that is meaningful
and good seem to fade out as new things if life come in. Just how this train car is people are always
putting on new graffiti covering the old or filling in were things are fading
out.
After looking at the train car I continued on my walk
pondering life and taking photos of the world.
I really find that I can just lose myself of all my problems when I’m
out taking photos. I don’t get to do
this as much as I would like to, funny how work gets in the way of things.
I got to spend the last part of the day meeting up with Sara
at my 2nd Home.. As usual we
had a great time and great conversation.
It was a great way to end the day
and a great way to start the new year out as well.
