Lost in Plain Sight!

Just stumbled upon this web portal of Maisie Crow, a photojournalist.

http://www.maisiecrow.com/photos/LOST%20IN%20PLAIN%20SIGHT/



The album is just unusual and awesome, and I fear to ruin its impression by describing it in words here, but the copyright thing wouldn't let me post the pictures otherwise. If I were to post, I wouldn't have posted the entire album, but a few pics, because the idea conveyed could be taken for a bit too blue, however, what remains the undeniable beauty of all these real life pictures is the true colour of resilience of human soul, the toughness that comes at work only when the times get too tough to be lived.
Please notice the handwritings in the manuscripts accompanying each image. Broken letters, shattered times, but a fighting human!

Life can be tough and brutal. Sometimes more than we can actually handle. But there are people, somewhere, at sometime, who bear that brutality and toughness with that true tenaciousness that only belong to a strong human soul!

Understanding how to live life has been the MOST daunting task for a human soul. However, those who succeed in learning the trade, always succeed in finding it in the simplest of the ways.
These pics made me say a heartfelt 'Alhamdulillah' for my life! :)
Thanks for dropping by.
