Photo 365 - Day 92 (Remembrance)

Day 92 (October 3rd, 2010)
Title: Remembrance

I know we have days like "Veteran's Day" and "Memorial Day", which are great to help remember those who have fought in wars, but sometimes its nice to just remember folks (warrior or not) on just a random Tuesday (or any day really).  So, the next time you have a free moment, think about your history and who helped build it.  Think about those who came before you and what part they took in creating the legacy that you are now living in.  Perhaps you can also think about what part you will play for the next generation.  Think about how what actions you can do to help those tomorrow remember those from yesterday.

Ok, I admit, that last line was a bit "fortune-cookie", but still, its not a bad thought!

  1. Love this photo - it truly says what you've written - the vibrance of the flower with the ultimate fate of everyone of us in the background, the tombstone. Live today, remember those who've gone before us, ponder what you're leaving behind. Poetic picture - this is very good.

  2. Thank you. Sometimes I get all sentimental and stuff. This shot really was a random picture that I didn't even look at the first time around, but after looking at it a second time, I realized that there was a lot more to it. Its one of those shots that when I really took the time to look at it, there was a lot of meaning in it.
