One of my birthday goals was to take a picture daily for a month. I have set this goal before and failed to achieve it, so I decided to try again.
This time, however, I gave myself at theme. I assigned myself to take pictures of the sky.
Funny thing is, I can’t find one of the pictures. In the past, I would have been all upset about this because it marked an imperfection in a project on which I worked. There are other things I would have let ruin this project/process as well. For example, in a number of the pictures, I was unable to get a shot that just had the sky in it. In a different one of the pictures, the sky looked really funky because of nearby lights.
However, I have chosen to think differently about this project. This project did exactly what it was supposed to do. It made me stop and take notice of my surroundings once a day for a month. Only on three occasions did I wait until after dark to do this, which at this time of year in Michigan says a lot. I am happy with it, and glad to say so; these goals are meant to contribute to my happiness.
