Love on Tour: A Moment in Time

The past two years have been so hard on everyone, worse for some and better for others. My whole life was flipped completely upside down and it was suddenly hard for me to get out of bed each morning. I needed to find something that helped me feel like myself again, regardless of how meaningless it may seem to others. I bought tickets to a concert that was going to be over a year away to give myself something to look forward to everyday. When the concert finally came around I knew that I had waited so long for this moment, I should take pictures so I never forget. But I didn’t want to be watching through a screen, so I left my camera behind and didn’t take any photos. I lived in the moment and it was better than any shot I could have gotten on the camera.

He walked out on stage in black slacks and a sparkling gold vest, he was golden. The screams were deafening but at the same time you could hear him perfectly. The smile on his face was the brightest i’d ever seen, it lit up the whole arena. Watching him dance and jump around the stage, interacting with the crowd, it was amazing. I considered pulling my phone out and taking a photo but everyone around me had their phone out and it seemed like they weren’t living in the moment I felt like I needed to. I enjoyed it without having to prove to the world I was there.
