Author's Note: In language arts today, we made word trains where the words have to begin with the letter the last word ended with (i.e. dog, gill, late, emu . . . ). In one of my word trains I came up with Kodak somehow and I wrote about about a Kodak moment.
I want a Kodak moment. What is Kodak? It's a camera and printer company. Now what's a Kodak moment? It's the perfect picture, a perfect moment captured on camera. You know how all of the camera packaging comes out with all these smiles and saying things like "Capture the moment with Kodak!" and happy people. I want to smile and just have fun, but I don't really. Why don't I all the time? A part of me, the deepest and fearful part of me says, "Welcome to reality. It sucks." Then the other light, happy, little kid like voice tells me to go and chase my dreams and live life. In the middle of this swirling vortex called my soul, is me. I want a perfect moment captured on camera, so on those days that I'm not so happy, I can look at it and say there's my Kodak moment. Right here in front of me. The perfect moment.
