I wonder, why, just a little, I'm always wanting something more

Life is a riddle, I wish I had the answer for

Love breaks your heart, to teach you to be strong

I die, just a little, so I can live a little bit more

~Leigh Nash

 

Another Thanksgiving has come. That time when we stop and reflect upon what we really…want. I need this, I want that, I hope I get this, I should buy that. An endless cycle of wanting, buying, consuming, disposing, and wanting all over again. Is that what we're all about? What it means to be human? What separates us from all the other species that inhabit the earth? I think we're all dying inside. I am not innocent.

 

This is something really different for me. Had this concept in my head for a long time, but was afraid to try. Didn't turn out exactly as planned, but what does? Inspiration credit goes to Tysje, Mathilda, and Pukilin and their amazing self portraits.

 

Oh yeah, I almost forgot to link to the breathtakingly beautiful song I quoted. Just a Little by the lovely Leigh Nash.

On someone's suggestion I came down to Mooney's Bay, by myself.

 

Then suddenly I came up with an idea to just put the camera down and take a shot of me in this state, whether it focused on me or not. I think it looks just fine, if not better, focusing on the grass.

 

The idea of self-reflection is quite true: for instance, I don't have school, no job, and no friends at all to hang out with. My whole life is ahead of me.

 

Mooney's Bay is perhaps one of my most favorite places in this city. Unfortunately I couldn't stay long - I had to get all the way back home, about 14.94 km away. If I had my way I'd have gone swimming, right there. It's a sandy bottom, no sea weed, and the water is beautiful.

 

It's kind of lonely there too. That's how I feel anyway. Man, the grass did a good job, I love this composition.

I can not begin to tell you how many times my heart has been tricked, fooled, even deceived by someone who once filled my heart with completely different emotions. Call it as you see it like a batteed spouse drawn in by empty souless words only to be viciously punched when the guard was let down by the rising white flag of deceit.
