Red and Blood.
I took quite a moment staring deep at this picture. In just one brief glance, I'd say this picture is cool, but seconds after, I'd change my mind. It perplexes me in a way, really. Prolly because a picture does tells us thousand of things. You see, they drew this picture half-faced, but if you take a closer view you'd be able to see the faces somehow radiate sadness. The lips are curled downwards at the edges, hence giving me a short burst of the sadness feeling. They made big circles exactly at where someone would point out that's where the heart is, and these circles closely resemble hollowed parts. What's more to this picture is, the circles are red-colored, making them look exactly like nothing but blood, no? And the smudged red paints oozing downwards makes them look like streams of blood dripping to the floor. Perhaps, they tried to capture the emotions that they're dwelling with right now in this single picture. The sadness of losing the lives they are all accustomed to by years, but in just one swift, the tsunami took that all from them - the belongings, homes, families.
And all I can do right now is to pray for them. Lets pray.
