On the most exciting Christmas night of my life, late at night, on the way to the Golden Rock sanctuary in Myanmar, a monk was asking, with a monotone chant, alms to the passers-by, who almost did not notice it.
What I and the unknown man exchanged that night is something unrepeatable. I gave him a smile, showing him his picture on my camera display. He gave me the happiness of learning something about life, which I still wonder about today: the pride of staying motionless, and despite the incredible humility that emanated, with a high and proud look.
This image will accompany me forever, reminding me that in one of the most expensive nights on Earth, somebody spent a whole night standing, asking for a single coin.
