If a picture is worth a thousand words, how much is a word worth? Somethings you just can't catch on film, and you can't describe. You need the words to tell the story. A million pictures to make one story. A thousand words for each of those pictures. That is a lot of math.

You can capture some emotion, but what else? Can you see the depth of sorrow? The pain of regret? The loss of innocents? You need the words for that. You can't feel the softness of my skin, you can't smell my coconut hair conditioner. Now that I wrote it, you can imagine it though. I will give pictures something though, you can hide more blemishes in pictures than you can words. You can use photoshop and cover up scars. You can widen the pupils so that someone thinks that the model is in love with them. You can change my tone, make me lose five pounds. Words show so much more. Simple choices in words and punctuation.

"I like that picture."
" I like that picture!"

I would like to see you.
I would love to see you.

Statements can be strengthened Or weakened. A photo can be edited. Messages come across. One thing about pictures, you can't erase them. You can burn them, but if you make a mistake there is no eraser. It is like life. No Eraser.
