just something to ponder on

This is really a beautiful series, and great photos...
And so true!
Photographer Tom Hussey
<http://www.tomhussey.com/#/LIFESTYLE%20%20%20/LIFESTYLE/1> created
a series of pictures that will speak to you, no matter
your age, race, beliefs or occupation. The Reflection
photos illustrate just how much we change in our lives
and how it seems to happen all at once, no matter how
many years actually go by. These will grip your soul.
Reflection gives insight into the former lives of these
senior citizens.

Tom spoke to a veteran right before his 80th birthday.
His quotes inspired him to create the series.

“I can’t believe I’m going to be 80,” he told Hussey. “I
feel like I just came back from the war. I look in the
mirror and I
see this old guy.”

“It’s a universal condition — at some point in your
life, you look in the mirror and say, ‘Wait a minute,
how did I get
this old?’” said Tom.

“The idea for doing these images was a person looking in
the mirror and seeing what they remember.”

“When you look in the mirror every day, you recognize
yourself, but when you go back and look at a photo of
yourself 20 years ago you say, ‘Wow, I really have
changed.’”

“You get to some milestone — age 20, 40, or 80 — and you
can’t believe that much time has gone by.”

Take time to appreciate every day, because these years
will be gone before you know it.
