Kids In the Fountain

posted by FH2o


Was in Singapore for holidays with my family recently and took these shots of kids playing in the fountain at Bugis Junction Shopping Center. It was a scorching afternoon and I envy the kids who are having a whale of a time - oblivious to my photo taking and the watching crowd in the shade.


I particularly like these 2 shots and would like to share them with you. Hope you like them too.

"All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up." PABLO PICASSO

"People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth. Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child -- our own two eyes. All is a miracle."

LITTLE BILLY ON...PHILOSOPHY

posted by FH2o

A teacher asks her class, "If there are 5 birds sitting on a fence and you shoot one of them, how many will be left?" She calls on little BILLY.He replies, "None, they will all fly away with the first hot." The teacher replies, "The correct answer is 4, but I like your thinking."

Then little BILLY says, "I have a question for YOU. There are 3 women sitting on a bench having ice cream: One is delicately licking the sides of the triple scoop of ice cream. The second is gobbling down the top and sucking the cone. The third is biting off the top of the ice cream. Which one is married?" The teacher, blushing a great deal, replies, "Well, I suppose the one that's gobbled down the top and sucked the cone." To which Little BILLY replied, "The correct answer is 'the one with the wedding ring on', but I like your thinking."

The Power of Creativity

posted by FH2o

A blind man sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet and a sign that read:
"I am blind, please help".

A creative publicist was walking by him and stopped to observe he only had a few coins in his hat. He dropped a few more coins into his hat and without saying anything, took the sign, turned it around, and wrote on it.

He placed the sign by the blind man's feet and left.
That afternoon the creative publicist returned by the blind man and noticed that his hat was full of bills and coins. The blind man recognized his footsteps and asked if it was him who had re-written his sign and he wanted to know what did he write on it? The publicist responded:

"Nothing that was not true, I just rewrote your sign differently".

He smiled and went on his way. The blind man never knew but his new sign read:
"TODAY IS SPRING AND I CANNOT SEE IT".

Change your strategy when something does not go your way.

Present yourself in a different way when things are not working out.
A change in outlook can turn your life around.
