I have been looking at this photograph listening to "Till We Reach The Circles End" wondering if it's a bad thing that we get toss about lost and broken. I think this photograph mean's something, in context with the music. Look at it, the ship is obviously being tossed about, maybe not so lost but defiantly broken. The lighthouse is standing strong, leading it away from danger. Aren't we all at the "mercy of the sea?" (The "sea
representing life) Don't we all wander, and get lost? But the "Lighthouse" is always there. It doesn't have to be a lighthouse, a bestfriend, or maybe a teddy bear. The fact is that they or it is always there when you need them. Right? I've been feeling rather tossed about lately. And my "lighthouse" has been standing strong for me. I think that everyone has something that keeps them going, if we didn't then wouldn't we all be dead? I've always thought of myself as a positive stand on the bright side of things kind of person. I mean I have my bad days and weeks, we all do. But for the most part you don't hear me complain about to much, or over worry about things. My maxim "things will work out, if not today then tomorrow, live one day at a time." I try to live my life by that. No matter how angry or "lost" I am. No matter how much I want something now. My mom says "don't be greedy." If it's ment to be it will work out. We all have some instinctual sense that keeps us forging ahead. No matter how stressful, no matter how much we hate it, no matter how much we don't want to let go. Life is ever evolving and we all just have to go with it. I think that's what this photograph is saying to me. That it can be bad but the sky will clear up and things can only get better.
