missing mangoes

dorwing entitled "missing mangoes" by avid

actually...she maybe missing more than mangoes. she could be missing friends, loved ones, her own room, her mom, her dog, her home, her old self...she misses all that and probably more and is trying to entertain herself by taking photos of the things around her. she's focusing on the new, the big, the tall, the colorful, the bright, anything that she finds interesting...the twisted, the worn out, the weathered, the abandoned, the solemn, the old, the crooked... she and i are probably the same in that we try to enjoy whatever new things we encounter or experience as much as we can: to extract whatever beauty there is in one thing, in one thought, in one moment -- not really to escape loneliness but to experience that moment fully, completely. of course, just like eating mangoes, we would find that the experience is not always ripe, pretty and sweet but we revel in that moment just the same. that's just how it is i guess after all, how can you recognize that something is sweet unless you know what sour taste is like?

anyway...i really just wanted to share the dorwing and hope you would appreciate it as well. more dorwings from this website: www.littlerocket.net.

enjoy!
