Pictures are amazing...like music and other things, they instantly brought me back to the moment when they were taken. They gave me a sense of security, too, since then I know some part of my life is preserved in a physical way...namely I can see it.
Interestingly...it's easy to see the difference b/w ones I took in the states and in Taiwan. The ones in Taiwan always have people sticking out their index finger and middle finger. Let's not think derogatory thoughts against FOBbiness, but be grateful that they have other fingers accompanying the middle one.
I always forgot to take a picture when I'm sad. Or disappointed, or in general, the usual bad feelings(maybe except parting from friends?)...they are feelings and somehow I feel guilty showing predilection toward ones over others..."A sad face is good for the heart..." as it says in Ecclisiastes. Of course I have the spelling wrong.
I wish I have taken more pictures than I have. Maybe I will start doing that now.
