Soft Focus

Far, far

Far far there's this little girl
she was praying for something big to happen to her
every night she hears beautiful strange music
it's everywhere there's nowhere to hide
but if it fades she begs
"oh lord don't take it from me, don't take it"

The misterious man in the tram

Dia de los muertos

A few days ago, I've posted some pictures of some really sad stories. Stories of little children with whom life wasn't very generous. But for sure, the little angels are happy where they are now and this could be at least a reason that can allevate the suffering of the parents. Regarding this, the Geto-Dacs (my anchestors) had a very interesting philosophy of live...or rather of death: They were crying when someone was born and laughing when someone has died. It's very interesting to see the point of views regarding spirituality of different cultures.

One very interesting philosophy of life has the Mexican culture. On the 1st of November I had the opportunity to join a friend of mine to see how the ritual of Death is beeing made.The Mexican Ambassy in Vienna organized this day of the deads and I was glad to could have join.

"La dia de los muertos" (The day of the deads) is celebrated in Mexic just like Europeans are celebrating Christmas. It's a very important day of the year and it is said, that the deads are coming back on Earth and the living family and friends and beloved ones must create an altar for them with all the things that the dead person loved during its life. People eat and play and sing and dance at the tomb so that the dead feel that they are not forgotten.

The Central Graveyard of Vienna

The Graveyard-District of the Orphans

A few days ago I was watching for the second time "Before Sunrise", when I realised that all the places in the movie aren't that foreign to me, but one, the Graveyard of the Nameless, which is a part of the Central Graveyard in Vienna.

A graveyard is actually the most vivid proof of the history of a place, an all quiet areal of memories where the dead try to find their peace in a better world, but it is also a place where families and belongings here on Earth come to shed a tear for the lost ones...

I went yesterday afternoon for a walk there. It was a sunny day of the late October, but there was no sun in myself. The pictures speak for themselves...

Cherish the people near you, cherish your family, friends, your beloved ones because we are not immortals, the life here on planet Earth can be so fragile...

Remember your mortality so that you can cherish your Life!
