so i have two images in my head. i absolutely love both images. i both images are important to me. i want both to last forever but i know neither will.
the first image is of this person serving a tennis ball which they know will be an ace to win the biggest tournament of the year. at the cameras view of the picture you see this girl who wants the win more than anything in the world. the view of the camera shows heart, passion, love, eagerness, and perseverance to win. at the view of the person you see the ball and the gorgeous sky above. nothing else. the person has no thoughts going through their head while the two images are being seen. in this second time is stopped, life stands still. the second before, this the person had a million thoughts in their head: about what they wanted to do with the ball, where their opponent can hit the ball, even what happened in the last point. in the second after this frozen picture the person will be thinking about their next move will be, where will need to be, and if they should come into the shot. but in the second where the person only sees the ball and the sky they are free, it's the best part of the match.
the second image is of a group of friends laughing after being reminded of a memory that they all shared. they have no worries of what is to come when they leave the place they are at. no worries of the day that they just had. they only know about the memory and the smiles of each other as the laugh about it. these friends all love each other and share many memories together. they live for that moment of laughter, of freedom, of knowledge that they will be there for each other until the end. this moment of laughter will last less than a minute but it will leave an impression on at least one of the friends forever. within thirty seconds they will move on to a new subject but during that time they were all free; free from worries, free from fear, and free from time.
these two images mean the world to me. i don't want to let them go, ever.
