Ember Macro Monday

Meet Ember.

You've met him once before in my cancer project, but I couldn't resist sharing him again.

Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. :) MM started on Sept 29, 2008 - Thanx to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

My fish has stopped eating, he seems depressed. . .even with a mirror aimed at his tank he simply turns his back on the "other fish".  His nature demands he flare up and fight, yet he does not.  May I never become this despondent.  As long as I keep fighting I stand a chance of winning.

Ember swims in his little tank thinking little fishy thoughts. Bobbing to the surface when I plop some food in. Gliding to the glass to watch me pass by. He is entirely dependent on me, yet he doesn't worry. What does he have to worry about? He swishes around in clear water, the light comes on, the food falls from heaven, he rests on his plant, he blows bubbles, the light goes out. . .day after day.  I would not mind being Ember for a day, I think it would be peaceful.

I had to clean Ember's little tank today, before vacation, hoping my son remembers to feed him while I'm away. Maybe Ember should be a little worried, lol. I placed him in a wine glass for his portrait session, but shhhh don't tell my husband, he'll never use that glass again. ;0)

This will be the last post you'll see in the project until I get back from vacation, sorry I will bombard you when I return, lol.
