Thankful Thursday - The Difference.

“The painter constructs, the photographer discloses.” Susan Sontag.

I love photography. It helps quiet my mind and I get to see things I'd never notice without my camera. 

Last year I spotted this guy limping, and away from the group, alone, in obvious distress. It appeared as if the others were purposely shunning him because of his impediment. 

I took his picture and it was only then I noticed the heart on his beak. Can you see it? 

It made me think of people who have been broken, rejected and shamed. People who walk around with an emotional limp, on the outside, feeling alone and unloved. 

And then one touch of His gentleness changes everything.  His love - makes all the difference. 

Happy Thursday, Guys.
