The Road


I wonder, in an apocalyptic wasteland would I turn to a primal being with savage instincts, or stand steadfast in keeping my humanity and scavenge for basic neccesities to survive, or simply choose to end my life. The depravity of the cannibalists in The Road, the callousness required to survive, I'm quite sure I will not forget. Survival instincts drive men to ends they might never have thought of. So, perhaps, the decision I consciously make now will probably be different from the one my sub-conscious self makes in a dying world.

Watching the father-son bond broken as the father died was heart breaking.

I've been inundating myself with the make believe world of films. It's time to get back to the books.

How could you see a child in pain, in complete need of care, of love and yet treat him/her as cattle, and walk away after manhandling them. It is not the lack of stimulation. It is the lack of love that has left the children in this state of despair. Didi still has so much hope to one day see her mom and love for someone who abandoned and condemned her to a life of misery. She says she's happy but always, the lingering shot shows that sadness in her eyes. She knows, her mom isn't coming back for her. But if one day her mom came, she would jump straight back into her arms. That's the problem with hope isn't it, that's the problem with humans. We want what hurts us. Hope is what kills us in the end.  Milen, the boy that never let his heart harden through all...

I enjoy photography, but I have fears; I don't fear failing, I fear the eyes of others; but I'm learning that those eyes don't matter This is my digital diary. My days. Of food, photography, travels and what ever else I love. M.
