Description
Making a difference
Changing the world
The Yin and the Yang
The right and the wrong

World peace and global warming
Management corruption ruining the country's morality
Making more money than the amount you're spending
Finding your true love

Through the eyes of a kid
It doesn't seem like much
Splashing the shallow water
Seems like a much bigger challenge

When the most you can do
Is the least of your problems
It must mean you are still splashing
Still making small waves in your own little pool

That's the splash of youth
Simply enjoy it.


****


You must see full view. The beauty is in the little droplets
That's my son, Yotam, just playing around on the beach.
Haifa beach, Israel

Beautiful . This brings back great childhood memories, playing in the tidal pools, looking for fishies... Such a carefree life, as a child! Great accomponying poem too. I think as people get older, they forget how to live like when they were kids.

My sister knows how much I love this piece. She bought it for me some time ago for my birthday and it's been on the wall of my last three homes. I'm moving to Belgium in October and it's coming, too.

The truth come from children. They are the purity of the human race...

...it's not a hat, it's a boa who ate an elephant...

Sublime picture, loving everything of it.

As soon as I found this, my heart gleed with the play of the child. When we are young we long to grow old. Yet, when we are old we yearn to be young again.

Life sometimes seems like an unfair cycle left with the consequence of age. The only escape we have is through the future generations. We should never ever be caught telling a youth to stop behaving like a child but to relish all he or she has of childhood.

This image is colorful and almost dreamlike. What I love is how this is so well thought out.

Great photo in all ways...!
Last night I watched an 'Inconvenient Truth' (about the influence from people on our planet, global warming etc.) which makes the image of an child playing in (hopefully) clean water even more 'moving'....
