Thousands of tourists come to see the murals scattered around the city to learn more of the history and culture of Belfast and Northern Ireland. Here the walls talk and tell many stories.
"But Oh! The blessing it is to have a friend to whom one can speak fearless on any subject; with whom one's deepest as well as one's most foolish thoughts come out simply and safely. Oh, the comfort - the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person - having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away."
--Dinah Maria Mulock Craik

I sit by the window and listen to the rain
come down
and I think about why we
do these things
we sit with our elbows on these
brick walls,
talking
bickering
lamenting the passing of our youth,
and what it means to be
young.
we spend our days and nights
drinking
screwing
screaming our heads off
and all it ever really does
is make my stomach
hurt
There's no meaning
still we try
to seek a neverending
why
Andy Goldsworthy's "Walking Wall" at the Nelson Atkinson Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri. You can see Mr. Goldsworthy, the artist, here with white hair, leaning against the wall talking to an interviewer.
Part 4 (4 of 6)
This is a small isolated homestead in the village of Karkara, in Killa Saifullah, a district in Balochistan. We sat with the women within the compound walls, talking, enjoying tea and learning how they've benefitted from the USAID funded 'Assistance to Agriculture in Balochistan Border Areas,' project. This is actually implemented directly by the Food and Agriculture Organization United Nations and we are FAO staff. In Pathan culture, only women can enter into home compound and they are distrustful of outsiders. However, we got on well them so they were happy to have me photograph the children and Daadi Nanny too.
