In distant dreams~

in distant dreams~_

I was going through my archives of hundreds of thousands of photographs as one often does, when I came across this image of my daughter when she was 4 years old running through the cedars of Lebanon and it made me catch my breath. She is now 13, and time has tricked us all again. How relentless it is, never pausing, never letting us catch our breath. It is always later than we think, isn’t it? So many unrealized intentions, how does one keep up with life, or should we at all?

Pausing and dreaming today in the moment of what was, what is and what will be…

Day 57 of 365~

Image taken in the cedars of God forest in Lebanon in 2008

  1. Such a beautiful shot with deep thoughts to match. There are two phrases, one from Harry S Truman, “It’s better to be sorry for things you have done, than things you haven’t”. I never want to turn back and say I wish I would have….. especially to my kids. The second phrase is mine, “I can’t see my wrinkles through my own eyes”. I’ll leave that to your own interpretation. Keep up the wonderful work! Cheers!
