ABOUT THE PHOTO
Occasionally in life, people come to think their lives are sucks and unfair. So, this is a picture for these people. This is a typical painter who challenges his life in this risky situation. No safety winged used, no insurance, no nothing… Moreover, he stepped his foot on the electric wire. Sigh… I really wonder whether he knows that he could be reached next life within seconds. Sometimes in our lives, we face lots of situation where we are blessed with NO WAY OUT. No other choice but to do it. Sometimes, I even refer these situations as DEAD LOCK. There ain’t no one who aimed to become such grassroots worker. He works like this because it’s happened. A situation that he might want to blame on LUCK.
Lots of renown philosophers stated that LIFE = RISK. Yes, it’s true for me and also for heaps of people, I bet. While writing this narration, I remember the quote I used to read when I was in university. “Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.” Helen Keller.
