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.

    I took my first breath that day and it looks like I wasn’t the only one embarking on a new adventure.

    I read about this story a few days ago and I have just now gotten the chance to come on here and see the polaroids.

    I vaguely remember the days of polaroids, as this photo was taken the day I was born. It makes the moment even more impactful that this photo involves a law enforcement officer, someone often forgotten and underappreciated, and the people I find myself surrounded with throughout my life.

    The story is a beautiful and tragic one, but I can only hope it continues to live on and be appreciated by people my age and younger. That we can understand the significance and importance of making the most of our days.

    Thank you for putting the polaroids on here, it has given me a new appreciation for the moments around me.

    Thank you for leaving a piece of you in this world . This is pure art, so inspiring and wonderful. So many words come into my head I just can’t explain

    En verdad es impresionante la marca que nos dejas. Yo no nací ni un poco cerca de alguna de estas fechas pero hubiese sido asombroso conocerte. Me conmueve poder entender un pedazo de tu vida por estas fotos y me da nostalgia . Eres grande en verdad

    Rest In Peace Jamie, you’ve done well

      I’m sad to here that your dad died.
      On that day another life began it was mine and millions of lives at that day started as well or turned one year older.

    I’m actually at an airport right now getting ready to fly home. I’m a girl with short hair close to how this boy has his, and torn pants as well. Among the things that I’m carrying with me on the plane is an fact a ukulele. I was born on this day and I’m 21 now. Funny how the universe works.

    This photo reminds me that I was born on a Saturday. An innocent boy plays the C chord somewhere in the world maybe to celebrate my birth.

      Hi Sara, I was born on this day too. I was surfing Facebook and came across this beautiful video detailing the story of Jamie Livingston. Came here and had only one date on my mind.
      Anyway, a very happy birthday to you in advance. Hope you enjoy your life the same way these photographs portray life.
