My first year in Germany

One of my first customers in the studio here in Germany told me that life was like a football game, that there are four quarters, and you have to play your hardest the first two, to set your self up with a 'good lead'. He also told me that I had to enjoy it, that some of my best moments will be in those first two quarters, and to never miss those great moments.
I had to take as many photos as I could, and never take for granted those moments. "Those are my regrets" he said "I regret not saving those great moments that I didn't take enough pictures so I have nothing to look back at it"
These words resonated with me for a year.
I loved my first year here, I took as many photos as I could and tried my best to stay happy, to play hard, and save the 'great' moments, in my first year in Germany.
