older but younger

I've written before about old photos. Looking into a mirror, seeing an older but younger 'version' of you.

Older because that was you. Not anymore.

Yet younger. Age-wise, that is.

We turn not older with years, but new every day!

2010 - Miyajima Island, Japan

2011 - Tampere, Finland

2012 - Melbourne

2013 - Canberra

2014 - New York

Each 'version' knows something the previous didn't.

Amusing but poignant. Bittersweet.

Only thing that never changes is that everything changes.

(I hope my smile never changes.)
