  1. The day I was born, this photo resonates with me in a peculiar but timely way. I’m going through a situation at this very moment where there is an individual texting me mean and hateful things, and my initial response was to get angry and retaliate. But then i wonder what would that solve? It wouldn’t convince the other to see my point of view or admit any type of defeat. I ask myself if I’d feel better for being mean and hateful and putting down another human being, no. That’s not where my joy comes from, so all of the things I was going to say or would of like to have said out of malice, needs to be thrown away. Like the phone trash.

  2. This photo was taken exactly 10 years before I was born. Jamie Livingston has been such an inpiration for me. I found his works 6 years ago, and went to university to become a professional photographer. I can’t imagine what path I would have taken had polaroid photography not captured my heart. Even now as I’m finishing my final year at university, I’m listing him as one of my main sources of inspiration.
    Thank you for sharing the story he created with friends.
