Wow Dex,
I'm at a little loss for words here.
Actually this is very much the opposite of depressing. I may play it up with a sad face somewhere for the effect, but in this case, it is such the RIGHT thing to do, it is actually uplifting.
Material items have no comparison in importance when it comes to family, especially one's kids. In all actuality, a camera to me, is a luxury and a toy in a way - a want, not a need. There is also a very powerful message I am sending in all this and is something that may not really have an effect for years to come from the other parties involved.
In the mean time, I'm still here, as always (really - LOL) and am really looking forward to testing my own skills with a far lesser camera than I am used to. Sort of like an underdog kid buying a race car team's discard, then comes back head to head, competively with it.
Oh that and Joey has a red target painted on his back that I am taking aim on - LOL
Thanks again for the kind words. |
