From here, the world has not changed. Even the people remained the same. They work like machines all over the world and would not take notice of one another unless they met occasionally by chance. Being alone is not the same as being lonely. Being alone is only a situation, being lonely is a condition. Of course, both may be sad. The passing time is the only thing that makes you feel lonely even if you do not pay attention to it. There are some who do not pay attention and try to fight against this feeling, but all fail. We stand no chance. I do not like transience because it devours our dreams.

Photography, of course, is somethiing totally different. It pretends as if it were able to pilfer the shreds of disappearance, but far from it. On the contrary. It reminds us of the old dreams even when we are seeking the future in our minds. What matters is not where we were born on this planet but what we have to do there. We’re musing about this all our lives. And finally, when we realize we cannot answer it, we begin to mourn over our past and remain alone, very much so.
