Children are like POST-ITS.
They are reminders of who you were not so long ago. Positive, goodness, love, openness, curious and pure.
Every time I photograph children I am invariably reminded of this truth.
And I try to recapture the soul that I once was.
It is difficult to sift through layers of experiences of life that cling to you like wet plastic. But it is not impossible.
When you wade through years and years of life that you have lived and reach for that pure place, where you as a child still reside, it is a moment of bliss.
For as long as you can hold yourself in that place you will get to experience the real YOU - someone without rancor, without hopelessness, without dejection but a child filled with the hope of a lifetime, of pure joy, of selfless love.
For we all started our life like that, till life took over.
But it always pays to revisit that child in you every now and then. As I said, children are good reminders of who we were not so long ago.
