A Glimpse Into the Future


Most of the time when I am looking at The Boy, I can only see the little boy he is now.  Sometimes I have a shot when I can see him as he was as a baby, or when he was smaller.  But very rarely do I see a shot of him that looks like the little boy that he will become.  I am not sure why, but when I look at the picture above, I see a little grade schooler, and if I squint my eyes, I can see the teenager and eventually the man that he will become.  Some pictures just have that effect on me I guess.  When I have been down lately, I just need to look into the eyes of this little boy and remember who I am and what my purpose here is.  Sometimes I need that.
