But, it was so fleeting that you had no times to do it.

A couple of evenings ago, I dropped by my parents house to visit. It was dark, I thought Dad already went to bed. I opened the door, he was in the living room in front of the altar setup for Mother (Ma). Many of you probably remember she passed away a year ago. Dad didn't hear or see me coming in. I saw him talking to Ma, "Don't forget to come and see me tonight, ok? I miss you very much. Don't forget to come and see me in my dream tonight, ok?"

Man, that just brought tears to your eyes.

Have you ever had one of those moments that you wished you could have been able to capture forever on tape?

I'm pretty sure you did capture it forever.

What a beautiful moment. Even though it wasn't recorded you got to experience it and I'm happy for you.

Photographer Joel Sartore says that sometime you just have to pet the whale. You get so caught up in trying to capture a special moment that you miss the whole experience.

As Spinzone said, you did capture that moment..
