Daily Deviation

Given 2011-07-05
The suggester says; "A very emotive and heartbreaking scene."
I agree. It's hard to look upon photographs like this without feeling empathy towards the subject. Heart wrenching.

:iconinnerviki:
Life is not a fairytale...
It manages to successfully bring ordinary people, as well as celebrities down to their knees... to the bottom. It has no mercy and we all are on this list to choose.

Looking at people who are damaged by life is hard and we would prefer them to disappear. It's like that because be realize the next day we may end up like this also. This is one of the options of what can happen to us and we don't want to see this. We prefer to look at people who are on the top, who lead a happy life.
This is what we all want, 'happiness'.
And your photography may be disliked because it shows that not all of us can find it. This picture is our remorse because we sometimes prefer not to see that someone we know is aiming to the bottom. We do nothing about it and the person slowly goes his path, loosing a job, friends, family, love... and hope, which dies as the last one...

I find your picture very meaningful.
Because the fact is, we all devote too much attention to kitschy and unimportant things which are an effect of imagination or manipulation only, neglecting the Real World which surrounds us, escaping from it in a way...
To internet, television... to the world where there are so many pleasant things and even when we see a tragedy while watching a film, we think 'this is not real'.
But our life is real and cruel many times...
If we all stay aside reality and problems, who will offer This Man a helping hand?

This photography has a large impact on me.
Because it is presenting the 'naked' truth abouth life.
If we will not help each other, than we all are on The Life's List to end up on our knees..
What do you think?

O rany. Bardzo wymowne. Chyba nic więcej nie muszę mówić o swoich odczuciach.
