Whaever i am photographing people, i often ask them about their story. What happen? How are you feel? asking a basic simple question. However the answer for the question may lead to a lot different kind of answer. the moment when they are sad, when they are happy. A lot of variety of different answer. Even thought that they did not tell the story, their facial expression tells me. The feeling, the mood, all are readable from their emotion.
I believe that human expression is a non verbal language that can make changes. They are talking with their expression. Why human are designed to have expression? So that they can tell stories, so that they can share stories.
The stories regarding to our life, sometimes we encounter the moment when we are sad or when we are happy. Life need to be balance, sad and happy are living together. When we are sad, we tend to forget to encourage ourself. Sometimes a provebial phrase are used to encourage optimism.
“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade” - Dale Carnegie-
The word lemon is to indicate an unfortunate situation. On the other hand, “lemonade” is the context of an expression to convey the potensial for pleasure and opportunity in a bad situation.
