Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement. Β 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.

      I was born on this day too! I feel a connection to this moment…knowing this woman was smiling and happy the day I arrived. The fact that she isn’t wearing a bra seems to speak to the feeling of me being nurtured that day…

    I was born this day. My life is not wonderful but it’s far from terrible. Still, I feel like I’m not enjoying it enough. When I see this picture, I feel like I’m wasting time. I’m wasting time he should have had. Time that people with joy in their eyes should have had.
    I would love to say that I will not enjoy my life at its fullest. But I don’t know and I’m so sad (and angry at myself to be sad) that I probably won’t be able to do so.
    I just hope people who are not happy and deserve to be will be.
    For them: β™₯

    I’m 16, I was born in 2000 so I wasn’t around when this picture was taken, but my birthday is March 4th, it’s amazing to me to see what happened 20 years before I entered the world. These photos are all so beautiful, I’m thankful to stumble upon your website and see what you have shared with the Internet, it’s a beautiful way to keep his memory alive.
