This lazy morning when it was raining outside, I was in my favourite chair, doing one of my favourite things- thumbing through old magazines and newspapers.
The magazine I picked up turned out to be an old, December 5, 2011 issue of the Time News Magazine.
Two photos, almost on succeeding pages, caught my attention. One was dark and negative while the other was positive and pleasant.
This was the firs photo:
This photo was entitled "Fanning the flames' by the magazine which went on explain what is was about: 'In a now infamous act, a University of California at Davis police officer pepper sprays students protesting in solidarity with Occupy Wall Street. (Photograph by Wayne Tilock). This almost Gandhian form of protest by the students, never mind the justification of the cause, really shook me.
The second photo of an advertisement by Louis Vuitton showing God's most beautiful creation- a woman, dissolved all my negative feelings and I was breathing easy again, with a faint appreciative smile on my lips.
