An old friend
I guess mine started as a child as some of yours have but for a different reason. My parent were divorced and that wasn't a subject to be talked about at the dinner table back then for the normal family. And children of that kind of family won't looked upon at that times very kindly. So we were raised by our grandparents, and my grandfather loved to go out west and collect rocks every summer. So we traveled with them to some of the most out of the way places I ever seen. Then on one of those trips my eyes opened to my surroundings and I could see things only a few ever seen in their whole life and places no man as every steped. Looking up and seeing stars that folk in the city and town don't see any more due to the street lights. I could stand on a hill and never see any part of mans disrtubance of the land. And my only friend with me to share those times was a camera.
