Unexpected kisses and more
March 3rd, 2009 Posted in All about Mia, Between me and Him, Photoblogging, What's it like to be me
1. Flower Cross Process, 2. Curious Mia, 3. Stalker, 4. Long day, 5. water nymph, 6. Stop, 7. Street Pulse, 8. monk, 9. the beach, 10. who, me?, 11. contact prints, 12. picking shells, 13. kiss!, 14. hands, 15. the missing bead, 16. it’s all ok
Things I learned looking at the world through the lens.
- When God closes the door, He opens a window. I lost some of my good photos when my brother accidentally reformatted the backup drive. But some of them survived and I got the chance to use them for a meme entry. I thought I didn’t have anything else, and it turned out to be better than I expected.
- When your child shares with you a discovery, pay real good attention. You might just learn a few things of your own. Like how beautiful it is to be looking at a little person’s delighted smile.
- Even mundane things can be something extraordinary. All it takes is a bit of different perspective.
- Sometimes days are just too long.
- Chance encounters are always something to look forward to.
- Waiting can be a drag, but you never know what you get afterward.
- Living in the fast lane is both dangerous and beautiful. Or either one.
- Sometimes just sitting still is the best solution.
- Life’s a beach.
- Good genes. When I was in nursery, my ambition was to be an artist, just like my dad.
- Film will always rock.
- Never stifle a child’s curiosity.
- A kiss from your kid is always the best thing in the world, especially when it’s unexpected.
- Even tiny hands can hold so much hope.
- Branded or not, nasa nagdadala yan.
- It’s funny how great a change one’s life can have. The key there is how you embrace it and make the most out of it.

i’m a dad and i can even relate to this article – our little boy is now learning to kiss (although with his mouth wide open).
btw, the mosaic is great.
