My house is approx a km away from the highway that goes past the airport, but I haven’t travelled it in a few weeks because of the “goings on”.     I usually travel it every day to fetch Daigan from school, but my mom and Matt have been doing the school run for weeks now.    So I was beyond delighted to drive down the road and as I turned the corner, here were all these flags leading up to the airport, I shrilled like a gay queen on prom night!

So today, I decided to take my camera with me, I was going to get photographs for the first time in a long time, of things, of life.   And as luck would have it, Avis head office in Isando was attempting a human chain to the highway at 12pm in honor of Bafana Bafana.

As we got off the highway , I had to go back on to take the pics of the Avis people and my friend Christie asked me if I was proud to be part of this and I just started crying.    I can’t explain to you what it has done to me these past few weeks, going through photographs on Facebook that all my photog friends were taking , the lives that they were carrying on with, and even a wedding workshop that I had so wanted to attend by my friend Natasha du Preez – I couldn’t do it because I was too weak.    It’s been hard – it’s not a jealousy, it was a deep sadness that I couldn’t get over, it’s hard to explain.    Anyway, the tears, they just rolled and they were of joy because today I got to take a photograph again, I got to join in – in a very small way, and it means so much to me.

So, they brought the Gees, and I took the pics ♥
