Childhood...

Looking back at my childhood photographs... I can't help but ponder on all the years that went by... a part of me yearns for yesterday... I am in awe at how 25 years can pass by... I am now an adult... and it still is a scary feeling. THIS is scary. And soon, I will be a mother, and have my own family... and things will change. My mother will grow older... much older... There will always be so much uncertainties in life. And that makes me afraid of living... Not knowing... Losing.






This is a picture Father snapped of us at a neighbourhood market. It must have been a weekend. He used to bring us out all the time... right at the start of dawn break. And yes...that's me, with the sun glaring in my eyes.

Treasure the memories... Scrap to your heart's desires...

  1. Wirda, yes, there's always that 'uncertainties'. my mom passed away 3 mths before i got married, just imagine the "cubaan" that i've to go thru', she passed away suddenly without any sickness, i was soooo depressed, but i have to accept the reality of life. we'll all go, one day, just dunno when, or how...

  2. I used to often think of those things too! But once you are a mother you find yourself focused on your baby and making their life the most it can be. Now I only think of those things in the context of how old will I be when my little guy is this age or that age? Wirda, beautiful LO! You are so talented!
