Something remarkable about Cambodia is that there are a lot of broken objects lying around.
What was once broken, has since been integrated into the environment. Plots of land, homes, playgrounds all have objects that seem so out-of-place, but they make the space interesting. They make the land. It’s a perfect photo for an I Spy book.
The objects show the history, the humanity, and offer perspective on the progress people have made in the last ten years there.
It made me think how hard we all try to hide our pasts, to cast a shadow over our failures, to paint over bad memories with new ones instead of letting them make our lives more interesting.
When we let our failures stay in our box, they may seem out-of-place, but to others they are interesting, they tell your story, they show you’re human.
It’s a step toward happiness. A leap toward success.
Stay Positive & If It’s Broken, Let It Be Part Of Your Story
