I am starting a year-long blog challenge. The idea just came to me after I was done viewing all the photos I took on my trip. Here it is, come rain or shine, hell or high water, I will post a photo I took and I will attach a short story or poem or at least a personal comment. There won’t be any web images on this challenge; in this way, I’ll be whetting my writing appetite and having to dust off my camera and start shooting snap shots of life.

The sun has set.
As you look back on your day,
what did you get?
With whom did you bet?
When you see the sun’s last ray,
who did you cheat?
Who did you beat?
Sort it all out at dusk.
Sort it all out before you hit the hay.
Make yourself this promise:
Tomorrow will be a better day.

What I want to talk about here is the shift from the experience of pleasure to pressure in involvement in such practices in my own life.
