My Photograph

A photograph is the pause button of life. Sometimes we cannot let go of memories, because they are constant reminders of a great story that we never expected to end.

Some memories never leave your bones. Like salt in a sea, they become part of you and you carry them. This is what I like about photographs. They are proof that once, even if just for a heartbeat, everything was perfect.

The only reason people hold on to memories so tight is because memories are the only things that don’t change when everything else does. When someone you love becomes a memory… that memory becomes s treasure.

I like the metaphor of what memories are in a photograph....when our memories fail us...having a picture is worth a 1000 words....
