Pictures are truly worth a thousand words...when I look at this one it reminds me of what is most important to me, what makes me who I am, what gives my life purpose...my family! This is our annual Christmas vacation, a tradition we started 8 years ago because we all enjoy the warm weather and beaches and find winter a long season to get through. This year it was Coconut Bay, St. Lucia!
The picture I sent to you reminded me of my trip to Japan this summer when I toured the very walkway featured in the picture. It was one of the highlights of my 2 week vacation to walk through the hundreds of tori gates that were featured in the movie "Memories of a Geisha". I found the picture on Picasa, the first time I have visited the site. I looked at several other pictures of Japan and felt guilty that I had not taken the time (still) to organize my photos from my summer trip. It is a common problem...I enjoy taking the pictures but find in this digital world I am not motivated to organize, sort, select, print etc. my pictures after I take them. I am hoping my visit to Picasa will motivate me to do so, if not now perhaps in the summer. I'm not sure if I feel comfortable publicly sharing them on line so I will have to give that some thought. I think this is a site I could potentially use in the future when looking for visual images...now it's time to explore my fellow bloggers and see what pictures they came up with.

I find that it is not the lack of motivation to organize my pictures that is the problem. It is more an issue of time. I find that with a digital camera, I end up taking more and more pictures. I upload them with good intentions but then it just stops there. I honestly do not have the time to tag my photos. Then, when I want to find one, I complain about why didn't I tag my pictures. But do I? Of course not.
