- A priceless smile
Sun, 06 Jan 2008 11:41:00 +0100

Israel - Gross Islet, St. Lucia He found me outside the grocery store and told me I reminded him of Marguerite, his old love; I told him I loved his beard, he said women hated it, I told him he was very handsome, he showed me the crafts he sells, I told him to look for me the next day. He found me the following evening and managed to get the last US dollar bills we had left in the wallet. It was worth that and much more. He left everything to become a Rastafarian and lives on the top of a hill growing his own vegetables, wearing only cotton and smoking only pot. I hope I see him again some day... one day... - Happy New Year!!!

Robert - Anse La Ray, St. Lucia Being aloof and away doesn't mean that I have stopped thinking about all of you. Thank you for the Christmas emails and good wishes. I was not home for the holidays, I went to Saint Lucia and took quite a few photos. Here is Robert with his beautiful smile and wishing us peace, and that is my wish to all of you: more than happiness, more than love, more than money... I wish you peace, all the peace you can have this coming year and I wish you heaven... 'cause I know it's there. My love goes to all of you, Jo - Stop for Life

I have stopped to live and this is what I have seen... and I just realized I have missed this place, so I will take time to look around... if I may. - Identity Crisis

If I could only put the images in words If I could only make my visions take the stage I'd colour all those greys I'd make the colours dance I'd show you what I see When life's behind the glass Jo/Today One lesson I have learned in life is that it takes more than a camera to become a photographer - A Wish List...

(repost) Broken, empty, disgruntled, hopeless, you found me a day before the time, before the date I set with silence, before I looked to death at last. You saw the world within the sadness, you grabbed my hand and walked me inside, you showed me beauty where I saw foulness, you showed me "me," you made me grand. Jo / 2004 - Faces of Poverty
Sun, 26 Nov 2006 22:22:00 +0100

faces, common faces faces like yours and mine faces stained with tears faces without a smile faces of those who suffer of those who have none to care the many faces of poverty faces we shan't forget Jo/Today Some time ago I was called "voyeur" for the photos I take and post. I call myself a Utopian who has a dream of equality and justice for all, and who hopes that with the photos showed, at least one person, gives a thought to those nameless, but painfull faces and decides to give a hand. - Life?

(repost) Two years ago I posted this photo, around this same time, trying to get your attention... the same I ask today. The holiday season has started and with it the rush for celebrations, gift buying, partying... how fortunate we are, and how unfortunate are many others who have nothing to wish for, nothing to expect and no one to remember them. Please... don't forget about them! - Beautiful Life

Life happens, anywhere we are and no matter how we feel, it happens and it's our choice to live it or see it pass by and wave at it. Live with passion... this moment won't be back. Picture this moment and save it in the little box of your memories... one day it might tell you a story or two. Much love and peace to all of you for a beautiful autumn weekend. HUG!!! - The face of beauty

Walk where others care not to go hunt for treasures within the gold look inside the depth of deep there you'll see what most have missed Jo/Today Have a wonderful weekend and if you stumble upon a flower, look twice, you might be able to see her face. HUG!!! - Life goes on (re-post)

And now alone life must go on looking straight to what's to come what was with her is there no more it's time to live life should go on ~Jo/Today - Childhood interrupted (re-post)

I posted this photo, under the same title, last year. For some reason it touched me, and when I am touched I write whatever my hearts commands, but I couldn't find words for this photo, I thought for a long time and simply... words didn't come. They come today in the shape of sadness. One of my favourite places is Lancaster (Pennsylvania), and I go there very often, at least once a month (last time was last weekend). The thing I enjoy the most is driving around the Amish country. Everything is peaceful and quiet, adults are always busy and children are always playing and learning how to work on the farms, rarely wearing shoes. They are mourning five girls today as a result of a massacre, and this is my only way to show my respect for them. Yes, I am a dreamer and a Utopian, but I still think and will always think that if each of us did something to stop violence, violence would stop. - Uh, oh...

There are times when I forget that good things in life come for free and yesterday, while browsing posts and seeing how beautiful this place is, and how special became for me, I realized that it was on Fridays when I had the best of time trying to find photos that would make people smile. Things happen, people come and go, life becomes busy... but today... I don't want to let this day go without telling you and you and you... how much you have meant for me. You are a wonderful group of people and that shows... it showed yesterday and today and that is what makes this place on the Internet so very special. So I wish that whatever you do, wherever you are or however you feel, this weekend brings peace and harmony to you and your loved ones and the promise of a much better tomorrow. HUG!!! - Peace

Thinking of you - Happy Birthday Tali

I don't know if this post will get in the right time zone but if I wish you Happy Birthday anyway. I wish you heaven. - Steps

"When you come to the edge of all the light you have known, and are about to step out into darkness, Faith is knowing one of two things will happen There will be something to stand on, or you will be taught to fly." ~Richard Bach Take a chance this weekend, no matter what or how... just take a chance. HUG!!! - Beautiful people

(Sunset at 6300 mts.) Excuses are easy to make so I won't make any. Thank you for all the emails, the comments, the good wishes, the name of the song... I sat many times in front of my puter thinking about replying to emails, comments, or simply posting a photo, but my need to be aloof was stronger than the loyalty, I feel, I owe to the best group of people I have met. You know who you are, one by one, and I never stop thinking about any of you; sometimes I have come to PB to see the beautiful photos you make and trying to find answers to my questions. I don't take life lightly and sometimes that is a big problem for me, so I prefer to not make bonds for fear of not being able to be constant and respond the way people deserve. Although is Saturday night, I wish all of you a beautiful weekend or whatever is left of it. ...because you loved me... - Happy 2006!

I wish I had a better photo, but I believe this image has what I wish for us all for 2006... a childlike way of being. I wish all of us wake up the kid in us and play again, wonder with the smallest things, look at life with innocent eyes, believe in fairytales, look for miracles, speak with angels, dare to fall and get up again... fall in love like the first time. I wish you love, happiness and harmony. I wish you life :) Follow your bliss - Sadness

I am among the lucky ones who celebrated the holidays in a warm home, opened gifts, ate delicious food, and shared the time with my family... but apart from all the homeless and poor people I usually show on my photos, there is a group of people we rarely think about: the immigrants. There are so many people who come to our countries looking for better ways of life, money to send home, opportunities; they work strenuous schedules and long hours, and their ideal and hope is just one... to see their family again, a family who was left thousands of miles away. In times like this I ask you to please remember these people... their loneliness is many times so deep and loud that they just can't make it. For one day lets forget about all the problems the immigrants cause and just think about all the misery they go through to "just make it." Unless you have lived in a third world or poor country, you can't come to understand how it feels to live on $5 a month. - Beautiful people

As I was visiting blogs I found a comment in JotaSantos' that would be worth discussing about. It says: dear commentators, i really appreciate your enthousiasm, but a lot of people can't share it with you because of the portuguese language. this group and this blog is for everybody, so what would be more natural than using a language that most people understand. i would like to have your opinion on this matter, but i am inclined to erase in future all comments which are not in english. this is not a vote, i will decide in this matter before 1 januari 2006 Personally I believe that the language in which a comment is made is not important at all, what is really important (or meaninful in this context) is getting the comment itself (after all there are lots of other blogs where the comment would be appreciated). The fact of getting a comment means that the person who left it feels the photo is worth commenting, and giving an ultimatum to a person that, either the comment is written in certain language or deleted, in my opinion, is absolutely rude and even insulting. If a comment is not understood, why not make an effort and at least try to find out what it says? This is my point of view, anyway, what do the rest of you think about it? - Merry Christmas

It's not about unwrapping presents, Under a colorful Christmas tree, Secretly thinking our gift was better, Than the small one we just received. It's not about being kissed and cuddled, Under the old mistletoe tree, By that stranger who's lips are smiling, Yet, we don't know how his heart feels. It's not about getting together, Wearing new clothes for Christmas brunch, Nor are the drinks, deserts and coffee, Family stories, gossip and smiles. My wish is that on Christmas morning, We wake up feeling we're not alone, We have been given the gift of friendship, Which we should make last all year long. Jo / Always I wish you peace.... and love - He smiled at me
Thu, 22 Dec 2005 23:55:00 +0100

... and what a peaceful smile he had. It all can be in a moment, a fleeting but memorable moment.
