March 2, 2008 ~ Procrastination

Have you ever wondered what procrastination might look like? Well, here is one example. This picture is what is left of an old, abandoned church here in Weatherford. I always drive past it on my way to the college. One day last summer I noticed there was a baseball that had been thrown through one of the top windows and was resting on a ledge just inside. I always thought it would make for an interesting picture and had every intention of taking one. But usually the only time I thought about it was when I was driving by and didn't have my camera or the time to go back and get my camera. Then as luck would have it, the church burned down sometime this past fall. So I thought to myself, wouldn't it be funny to take a picture of the crumpled church to show what procrastination would get you? Or, what you could miss. Again, I only thought about taking the picture when it wasn't convenient for me to do so. The next thing I know, they have cleaned up the burnt remains of the church! So what you have here is procrastination at it's finest, procrastination on top of procrastination on top of procrastination. I hope everyone sees as much humor in this as I do.
