Why I Do Selfies?
I hate them for myself. I enjoy other people's selfies. Just a few minutes ago I shared a picture from my senior year posted by Cheryl Fuchs. OMG! LOL! I know! Everybody is thinking... "finally.... the prankster is getting pranked!"
But, I read a story one time written by a lady who's mum (I've always wanted to use that word.... and it seems appropriate at six in the morning) had died. They were gathering memories and pictures to make a memorial display at the funeral. They had very few pictures because their mum ( :-) ) hated to have her picture taken. They were saddened that they didn't have more pictures to share with others as they came through to show their respect. I decided that this was not going to be me.... so I make myself take selfies.
I do not like this picture I took but we had so much fun on this adventure and I want my kids to remember this... and for their hearts to be warmed when..... I'M IN THE FREAKING NURSING HOME AND THEY DON'T COME TO VISIT! ..... whoops.... I digress (cue music)
My 30 year college reunion is coming up in July. We have been chatting back and forth getting ready for it. I know my classmates are looking at my facebook page thinking, "hmmmm... something's different!" Let me assure you.... It's me!
So... today. .. I challenge you! Take a selfie today! Post it on my page. Then start taking selfies everyday! Let your friends and family have some laughs at your funeral..... and maybe even today!
Hey... I declare this "Fro Back Friday!"
Start clicking. :-)
Have a great day!
