When days pass you just tend to
forget what you have been doing in the past times, days and years. People
always make fun of the fact that I take so many pictures where ever I go. While
sitting or eating, walking or even while sleeping, maybe I am too attached to
my life, and that’s why I want to keep every moment that I live, very close to
me. I know these moments will never come back, but I had a sheer pleasure to be
able to live these is greatest feeling and I want to capture them and hope when
I see these pictures again I will be able to live them again. It’s easy to live
things at moment and then forget about them, but if u possess a memory that
weak you might as well make effort in the present to capture the instance with
picture or better a video to revive that memory in future. You might not be
able to re live it, but it’s your life and these things help in never letting
you forget those precious moments. Like when people break up and they want to
delete all pictures, it’s the same thing! I agree with the concept. You should
do that if you don’t want to remember someone.. you should delete all the remains
you have of that person or times together. As, if you do not do that at that moment, no
matter how much you try to forget, if you come across pictures or belongings you
will remember most of the moments of the relationships. Well when talking about
breakups, not all breakups are that bad if you don’t regret the relationships,
then might as well keep the memories. You can see I am strictly against
deleting pictures, unless things are really bad, because for me it’s your
freaking life, you have lived it, why would you want to forget it.
Pictures would not be as successful
in making you live life again, but they can make you brush up and remove the
dust over that feeling and remind you of your life, and make you believe its
not that a waste , that you think like it is at the end of an era. That is one
feeling I have after every 5 years when I listen to more interesting stories about
lives of people and their experiences, good for them they have really great
memory and they relish this without capturing and narrate and spread the
message in form of stories. Bad for me I become jealous, like my second nature,
and tend to question my life, what have I been doing dude??? Looking at people
and thier life’s like that, the only rescue for me is to get back home and see
my old pictures, Where I LOOK HOTTER :P and lived and done as much fun , and
some times more fun than other people. My picture database is something I treasure,
it’s my biggest depression come back, thanks to advent of mobile phones it’s
not that difficult anymore, now its not just about the touristy places that get
clicked with the digital cameras. My phone helps me click the best of yogurt I have
had and record a beautiful song sung by a guitarist at a Mexican restaurant. It
literally helps me capture every moment of my life. I Wish like how Shubham
keeps a “N”number of hard disks, (you see the alphabet N , you see it’s in capitals!!!)
I want to emphasize really, he has “N” number of hard disks full of movies. I want
to keep all the collection of my pictures of life safe in the hard disks, and
these can be N+1, I do not mind.
My father says don’t love life so
much, the only reason you are afraid of death is you love your life so much and
stay so attached to it, you cling it. BUT, I am not afraid of death probably, I
know I m living my life to best I can and I have proofs of that in form of
these pictures. Any moment, if death shall take me I wouldn’t be afraid, no
matter how attached I am to life at
present, I will cling on to death then for good.
