Dreams. Curiosity. Exploration. Friendship.
Discovering life’s simple pleasures through the eyes of a child. This is one of my favorite shots which I took during our trip to Tanay one December barely a month after my last chemotherapy. It was one of those times that one feels so relaxed just enjoying the cold breeze and exchanging pleasantries with a friend. Nissa brought a book to read while Jane and I were just contented inside the tent looking after the two kids – my six-year-old niece Bobic and her three-year old daughter Jaden. They were looking for spiders and ants. I told my niece that spiders don’t normally stay on the ground and that ants are seldom found on the grass. They were so disappointed. They just watched some crawling insects outside the tent. And before I knew it, I was laden with gifts of dried leaves and wild flowers.
How simple life could be if we let it.
A child’s imagination can teach us all so much.
Best wishes, Pete.

I remember taking my 2 year old granddaughter for a walk for just a city block. I think it took 30 minutes since every single thing fascinated her.
