compassion

This photo I took was taken when me and my photo philosophy class was on a field trip. We were walking through a shopping mall and did not know that it was one way and got stuck inside. The real definition of a tourist trap. Allot of the shots that I took while we were trapped here was blind shots because allot of it was really high up. So this was kind of a coincident mistake that came out for the best. The truth about this photo I think would lay in the color in the photo the white and the red. when I see this I think of the compassion that one needs to feel in order to move on through life. The red is dormant in the background and that speaks to me as rage and anger. To me everyone in their life will face a time when you are blinded by some form of anger either by you are someone or something else. When this happens it is a very difficult time in life and you want to blame something other than yourself and you just send out more anger and rage into your life. I think that everyone needs to have a white flower which to me is like a symbol of compassion. This is not always easy to demonstrate the compassion to over come and forgive the things that are filling you with anger and rage. Once you figure out how to use compassion you will be able to move through these troubling time faster and have better solution to your problems. That is the truth that I see in this photo.
