Today's my nephew's commencement for kinder. March 21, 2010. I had to get up early to shoot for his graduation. I wasn't ready, but I had to...
Anyhow, I wish I could protect my nephew from the disappointments in life. He was so disappointed that he didn't get any medals. I had a medal when I was his age and I never thought of the people who didn't get any.... now, as I saw my nephew looking up at the stage, observing as others got applauded, I was teary eyed. His pain was so evident... he looked so disappointed and frustrated. I could never find any words to comfort him. Because I never was in his position. I dearly love him... and I just wish that I could protect him from getting hurt.
I also got frustrated with myself tod
ay... I just wished that I practiced harder with my camera so as to not have any errors in my cam when I used it at the actual commencement. I only had myself to blame and I knew that... but my nephew was different... he still couldn't allow himself to blame his shortcomings. He's still very young... he wanted to impress..but sadly he fell short. I hugged him tightly today and tried to assure him that everything was ok... but he shoved me away. He was really embarrassed. I could only pray for him... that's all I can do for now.
