A Thousand Reasons: young

"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?

If You Do What You Did...

I've had just enough time to... do something differently.

Taken in Ipoh from 9 storeys up.

If you do what you did

When you were young...

Can you guess

Where you'll be heading...

Yesterday When I Was Young.

I've had just enough time to... make the best of what I have left.

Taken in Bali from a vehicle.

Yesterday when I was young
The taste of life was sweet as rain upon my tongue.
I teased at life as if it were a foolish game,
The way the evening breeze may tease a candle flame.
The thousand dreams I dreamed, the splendid things I planned
I'd always built to last on weak and shifting sand.
I lived by night and shunned the naked light of the day
And only now I see how the years ran away.

"Yesterday When I Was Young" - Roy Clark

If you're young,

Be careful of how your youth will be spent,

If you're old,

There is too little time left for regret,

Just enough time to -

make the best of what you have.
