Do you ever feel like you could use a new perspective on things? When so many things are going on and so many things are getting you down that you begin to find yourself pessimistic about everything? Maybe it’s time to focus on the beauty that’s around everyone.

We live in an age where a camera is now in our pocket…. Attached to our cell phone. The problem is that email is also attached to our cell phone… and texts… and notifications… not to mention phone calls. Leave the phone at home, grab a camera (an actual camera!) and look at the world around you through a lens. Sometimes looking at the things we see every day through the camera’s optic view can help us zoom in and focus on things that we normally wouldn’t see.

Honing in on these things, and snapping pictures, helps us to not only appreciate everything in the moment, but later, when looking at the pictures it can conjure up those happy and peaceful feelings again. You can get some cameras relatively inexpensive on Kijiji and they can just climb from there. One suggestion would be to purchase a good used one, just to see if you’re going to get the use out of it. You can always upgrade to a new just for you model if the camera flash bug ends up biting you!
