It’s futile to deny the existance of ugliness, either in the world or in myself. God made light, and God made monsters, and there must have been a reason for that. Even monsters are divine creatures and in some way, they too belong in the order of nature. Without the darkness, how can we ever hope to understand the light?

Siem Reap, Cambodia / January 14th 2012

Traveled 14kms via Quad Bikes from the Old Market into several villages in Siem Reap (which, I also found out that day literally translates to “Siamese Defeated”), where we also managed to catch one of the most beautiful sunsets I’ve ever seen, parked by a paddy field in the middle of nowhere. Going through the dusty villages, I managed to get a glimpse of the simple way Cambodian families lived their life, and was lucky enough to get smiles from every child that we passed by.

That day I learnt that there really isn’t any reason for me not to be happy, when these kids can keep on smiling, even when they have nothing.
