Daily prompts same and opposite

Doomsday looming over WordPress?! ;-) Topic #155 is about death again. If I knew I was going to die in 20 days (or a little more than one year, according to the Mayan prophecy, or whenever), it wouldn't change anything. I try to live in the present  even if I have some thoughts for the future and the past. There are things I want to do, but if I end up not doing them, I won't feel like a failure. "Life is always fair" like the voice-over says at the end of Mira Nair's Kamasutra (along with other wonderful quotes).


This goes also for the next topic: I don't want to be immortal, I don't care, but if it happens, well, I'll still have to live one day at the time. I'd probably acquire some wisdom if I keep the same body instead of resetting memories with each reincarnation, but that's all.


At the moment I think it's important I stay in the present and keep going, ignoring the doubts the Other Side throws at me. I need to believe more firmly in my dreams and just go for them. Life is beautiful. Be happy and smile always (so easy to say, so hard to do some days, but we must try, OK?)…


The photo challenge is about Morning – so here you have it: dawn in Fresno when we had to get up at 5am to head for Vegas, from my 2009 Southwestern Panoramas tour…


(I also have some Roman dawns, but they look pretty much like sunsets… so I thought I'd stick to this, at least I'm sure it's pre-dawn! Too early for a "morning" picture? But then, how can you tell it's morning except from the time on the digital camera?)
