I am the light of NYC.

"Your Fashion is your statement; it defines you"
This photo I took in NYC. This person was walking in front of me and as soon as I saw his backpack toguether with his whole outfit I had to hurry and take shot.
To me his whole outfit stood out from the whole crowd I was in, in a unique yet stylish way. And what really fascinated me was that he was able to pull off a loud golden backpack without looking even " a bit too much ".
It stated " I am here, and I am one in million ".

She puts a smile on my face; She teaches me what the wisest man will never have the smallest clue on how to say. With the simplest acts she shows me the W O R L D.

Last week on my day off I went to visit my sister , and two baby nieces. As we were getting ready for a walk to the park, my sister slowly pokes and tells in a very low voice to look over to Calytta (my two year old little niece) she has one of my sister's hats on her little head. She had put on herself, watching me and my sister getting ready that was her way of also getting ready. Later on as we were talking as we walked, she told me Calytta was copying a lot of the things she does or says. At the time I just smiled thinking it is very cute.

Later as I thought about it, I realized our children are a copy of what we as adults or parents are; "They will do what we do, so if we want to change the world we first have to make sure that what we passing on to our children is a positive attitude, the most loving heart, and how to live life the best way possible and not the easiest way possible. Teach them that life is gift, and to respect the ones we love; To be kind and patient."

Hillsong United FIRST time ever in Boston

On a tuesday, April 13, 2010 I went to a concert that is going to stamped in my heart and memory forever. United Hillsong first time ever in Boston (they did promise a return).

I have been listening to them sing for years now. Their lyrics are simple and humble words but words and yet touch the heart of God. I often questioned why wouldn't they come to Boston, and they were finally here. And to think that I almost missed it, it was sold out two days after it went on sale. I literally got the tickets last minute from an "angel". It was more than worth all the searching and almost getting lost trying to locate those tickets.

It was absolute perfect every minute of it. The PRESENCE overflowing that theatre in Boston was inexplicable. Every song made my soul rejoice, and as we worship my body felt as light as a feather. My heart filled with an uncontrolled love; as if my heart was too small for so much power, Joy, ever lasting peace, glory. I could go on forever......

Ps: That was also the first time I was able to photograph a concert (inside a theatre, night time) on manual, thanks to Charlie! Another reason why that night will never be forgotten.
