Taken in a local soup kitchen.



While I was out just now I checked for this week's topic from my cell phone. For some reason, the topic appeared as "Overhead" in my browser. So I took this intending to title it "Message from above", as it is both literal and figurative. It turns out the topic wasn't what I thought, it won't fit quite as well to "Love" but at least the word is in the picture. So I thought I'd post it anyway.

Yeah, that happens when you're not logged in- I saw "Overhead" too and thought- "Oh, not again", then realised I wasn't logged in, logged in, saw the assignment, and thought "oh, not again...."

Cool image though!

Thanks.

I think it may have to do with the page not being loaded properly. When I first open the page today I get PM notification (so obviously I am logged in), but I still get "overhead". I can see "love" now though. But lesson learned I guess.

You know, this is a very simple sentence yet it holds a very deep truth. It was even coined as "The Golden Rule". One of the wisest people that ever lived Hillel the Elder even said you could sum up the entire Torah concisely with this sentence.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

Agreed. And it's easy to say, but very hard to do.

Yeah I was away for a while. Have been meaning to get back but either inspiration, time, or both were in scarce supply. Finally able to get a snap shot while I passed by but ended up doing the wrong topic. But even in my best form I don't make anyone's heart skip a beat like you constantly do.

You're right. I often struggle with this when I encounter obnoxious and irritating events and people.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

Well spotted. Reminds me of that similar Biblical phrase "Love your neighbour as you love yourself"

I think the photo suits the theme well.

Thanks all.

Actually, the place is Christian run. And I only shot half of the phrase, the other half is "as Jesus loves you" or something like that. The vertical Chinese characters says the same thing.
