"The sharp knife of a short life

I've had just enough time..."


- "If I Die Young" The Band Perry


I see Beauty in many things. And like the ghosts that only speak to you if you notice them, they tell me wondrous tales. With my camera and my thoughts, I captured these as faithfully as I can to share with you. And by doing so, they gave me the reasons. And though the thousand reasons may not all be sweet and some indeed bitter; they are still reasons to live. Come to think about it, that is Life, isn't it?

Those Were The Days, My Friends.




I've had just enough time...  to drink to those good old days.


Taken in one of the cities in China that I could not remember after too many drinks.



Those were the days
When we toasted our dreams
With the crash of glasses.

Under the illumination of the streetlights,
We sang our pleasures
To the moonlight.

Those were the days
When tomorrow is always another day
Of a future that is too far away.

But the future is here today
And the beer taste no less bitter
Than those “good old days”.

 _______

Once upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours
And think of all the great things we would DO

Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way
La la la la la la
La la la la la la



Mary Hopkin - Those Were The Days, My Friend

  3. When it comes to ice method, my experience is also rich enough to consider more than playing the machine to practice your hand.
