Week 82: 2011 is...

... looking promising, I guess. Although, I'm not sure what it is promising. I am happy with the people who are close to me. I've also tightened relationships with some new friends, that I feel like I've known for a decade. I would just like to show my visual appreciation to these guys this week really.

D.



This is a photograph I took a few years back in Nice, France. It's one of the only photograph's I had to stop and think hard about. So we can all see that it draws you in, you just want to walk to the end of the bridge, but something is holding you back. It's the arrow, you caught it in your periphery didn't you? Yes you did. Either subliminally, subtly or straight away. This is deliberate. It is the conflict between crossing that bridge when you come to it, or turning back and never going near it again.

The way I feel this relates to my friends, may not be clear at first. It certainly wasn't clear to me anyway. I see the bridge symbolising my friends (and this is not any old bull conceptual analogy, it's the way I think) that get me to where I want to go, through supporting me at a higher level than what is pushing me back. The force that is pushing me back, is subtle and inferior to the powerful support that these guys give me. The force that pulls me towards the end of this bridge, the tunnel effect is also symbolic of my peers. They are a force to be reckoned with and I send my regards to all of them.
