Hidden Beauty

There are so many emotions immersed in this video.

It’s amazing when the cruelty around us gets a slap in the face sometimes.

Study everyone’s expressions to try and catch the moment they’re humbled.

Let it go

I was in China last summer watching an acrobat show.   It was so amazing that I caught the whole thing on video.  Funny part - I watched the whole thing from my 2 by 3 digital camera screen to make sure I didn’t miss a move.

Yesterday, I was on a roof watching one of the most gorgeous sunsets I’ve seen in a while.  I spent  a good minute fumbling for my camera-phone before I was told to just stop, sit down, and enjoy it because it would never happen the same way ever again.

That’s when it transformed from a nice view into an absolutely surreal moment.  I’ve probably already forgotten exactly what it looked like, and I don’t have a fuzzy snapshot to remind me - but that surreal moment on the rooftop will be ingrained in me for a while.

There’s a beauty in leaving some things uncaptured.

And there’s a beauty in moments that will never come again.

Don’t let them go to waste.
