Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement.  Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

    This is the day i was born, almost 26 years ago. Its crazy to think that on this day a whole world i was oblivious to was vibrant around me. Maybe ti some its crazy to think it was 26 years ago. Life is scary. Death is scary. But theres no use living or dying afraid.

    I just found a video on Facebook that told my about this site and I thought that I would look it up. This is also the day I was born and riding in the open trunk of a car is how I almost got my first major injury. I was going to ride in the trunk when I decided not to and get a different ride. The car ended up being rear ended pretty bad. No one was hurt but I could have been. I kind of find it funny on how it fits.

    This is the day I was born; what an interesting picture for him to take on a day that coincidentally is the same day.

    Very, very interesting. 🙂

    I was born this day. I was premature, and breeched. My Mom had a emergency C-section. I wasn’t due till mid November. But, I guess you could say I was ready to skate through life. I ended up being a healthy 5 pound girl. My Mother named me Sarah Leanna.

    It’s amazing to see that in the day I was born life was going on all around me. My mother was bringing me into this world and people were living the life they’ve already been brought to. Amazing to see.

    This was the day my dad decided to get sober and it stuck 25 years clean and sober his main addictions at the time were crack cocaine and alcohol. My dad is an old hippie he’s seen and done it all. I’m proud of him for staying clean

    I was born this day in california. The night before, as the story goes, my mother had a craving for Mac and cheese. She ended up eating the whole box. Shortly after she went into labor. Every august the 22, she calls and reminds me of this, and wishes me a happy birthday. This is a beautiful way for you to tell Jame’s story, and to involve the world with him on his walk through life. Thank you for this.

    This is the day I was born! It’s so crazy to think that so many different people live so many different lives at the same time we live our own. We never even stop to think about other people living their lives across the country or world.

    The photography is beautiful. I visited this date specifically because this is the day and year I was born. I’d tell a story but they say every picture is worth a thousand words.

    I remember everything metal in the playground was made of this same design. Its comforting to know that he also appreciated this. Thanks for the pic buddy.I hope it brings others the same feeling it has brought me.
