At times, taking in the mere discrepancy of scope, such as the overwhelming grandiosity of the universe, versus the seemingly mundane powerlessness of the individual experience, I find solace in moments.  This is one of them.  And I am enriched, by the idea of moments at all, and how really,  perhaps meaning is not so much about culmination, but perhaps something more specific.  While seemingly transparent, moments are the antithesis of simplicity.  They are complex and transcendent.  They involve a before, and after, a situation, being, a series of circumstances and decisions. The marriage between photograph and nuance.  Moment and experience.  YOU and ME. 

These two people are the most beautiful beings to me. (but this is besides the point)
Savi never wants to miss a thing, earnestly invites new experiences, standing his ground (He's always ready) 
Luna (also ready) trustworthy (though apprehensive), empowered joyfully in her inspired bravery.

Though, I find it important to point out, this photograph is because of the TWO of them.  No one is human by themselves.  Right.

See.  Here.  Is everything (at least in the smallest fraction of the universe).
Be present. Stand your ground.  Be ready. Trust.  Be empowered.  Be joyful.  Be brave.

Ah, metaphors. Whether faced with a sprinkler, or a paramount leap in life, or (YES) eating a spicy taco. 

There it is.
