#3 Sharing a Ted talk

🔺Topic:A father-daughter bond, one photo at a time

Speaker:Steven Addis 
He is a father and photography buff who, by day, harnesses the power of branding for social change.
Duration:3:31


🔺The words I think difficult

1. run off with something phrasal verb
to steal something and go away
EX) She ran off with breakfast for her respectable middle-class family.

2. proxy noun
someone who you choose to represent you, especially to vote for you
EX) proxy need not be a member of the company.

3. milestone noun
a very important event in the development of something
EX) We believe that what we have agreed today will be a milestone on the road to true peace and prosperity in our country.


🔺My thoughts of this talk

"Photos freeze time and remind us our experiences in past."
After watching this video, I appreciate the father's persistence of taking the same pictures every year. Even though he is not in many family's photos. He still has his unique way to keep memories with his daughter. And through the pictures, he sees the change of his daughter from year to year. Because while they take the same picture at the same place,their perspective change.
The most important thing this film wants to convey is, no matter what busy we are , we should take an active role in consciously creating memories. Freeze memories through photos and grow up with the photos. These photos will be the most important and precious memories of our lives.

  1. "no matter what busy we are , we should take an active role in consciously creating memories." I can't agree more.
