"Passion goes phut"

Scout had nothing planned for the day.
it was going to be just another day in a series of days .
she woke up, did the usual bathroom rituals ,did the usual stuff with the kids ,checked the same ole mail on the same ole computer.

But something did jolt her out of her self-imposed state of ennui. as she casually glanced through the photos that her friends had posted online ,she came across one that was really good. and thats when it struck her,that it was staring in her face all along " photos", didnt she want to be a taker of good photographs ?!

Quickly she rummaged around the cupboard and took out the good ole camera not the usual digital one. suddenly she was energised ,ordinary things were popping out of their blurred existence into the forefront .she zoomed in and was about to shoot, when she realised nothing happened, the button was jammed aaaaaaaarrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Creativity which was speeding through her veins froze and as she slowly came to,she thought - who was she kidding and promptly went back to the good ole defence " nothing good ever happens to me!".
