Capturing a moment

One picture can be equivalent to a thousand, no, make that a million words. One click of a button and a moment becomes frozen within time as the picture itself becomes the gateway to flooding memories when seen by older and wiser eyes years afterwards.
If you’re able to, look through your computer or in albums for pictures long forgotten. Look through photo albums that are slowly gaining dust upon itself. You’ll see a story that you were once a part of unfold before your eyes. One where you smiled. One where you were with people you loved…at that moment. You’ll witness places you’ve been that you know longer remember. And you’ll see a face that is looking at the camera…a face belonging to you.
And you’ll see how much has changed since that one click of a button that captured it all. Way back then you didn’t realize that as each day went by, nothing seemed to change. That everything seemed to remain the same. But change was happening right before your eyes, and the evidence of it all became neatly tucked away in a picture.
In life, we live through a series of moments that continually differ from each other. It’s just weird to know that one day when we look back at it all, how sudden and gradual each moment changed that we didn’t even know it was happening till years later.
