A Wall & Some Thoughts!

July 17th 2008 in Photos and Thoughts..., travel

If you have been visiting this blog for sometime then you must remember vaguely that i wrote about out Berlin trip. Don’t you? Can you recollect this ticket in fragments?

Anyway if you don’t, the thing is WE had been to Berlin long long ago but not so long for the International Air Show. And of course what’s trip to Berlin without a glimpse of he Berlin wall? I don’t want to put here the wall history and  i am tired to an extent to link it back to Wiki. With what purpose the wall was built might be stupid but what’s the purpose it serves now is interesting and worth of it.

GRAFFITI Art… I was really fascinated by the amount of work involved in painting those and most importantly the subject and thoughts for their art. It was truly amazing and the entire wall is nothing but creativity. Here are very few of them and the thoughts which goes with them.

PS: Sorry, i wish i can upload the full resolution image so that it’s possible to read those thoughts. But unfortunately i dont think its viable for everyone to open the page first. So i will tell what’s written where.

PICTURE 1: Good Things In Life Aren’t Things

THOUGHTS: Title Say’s it ALL

PICTURE 2: Monkey’s Mind

THOUGHTS:If you see closely what the Monkey has got to say, you can read “It’s All A Dream”. My interpretation would be not in a way that this entire life is nothing but a dream. But i took it the way what i remember from “My Best Friend’s Wedding”. Remember JR smoking in the corridor and the sweeper saying “This too shall pass”. May be since i am not convinced in believing “Everything happens for a reason” theory i think its OK to say “It’s All A Dream” when something happens. Esp when its something bad, so that i could wake up from that the next day.

PICTURE 3: Who Are We?

THOUGHTS: Nothing but a bunch of puppets who dance to the situation.

PICTURE 5: What A WALL can do?

THOUGHTS: “II my Italien friends”. This graffiti art is not something fun. There are groups and everyone have a part or particular area of the wall allocated to their group. And it’s based on common understanding that one will not disturb the other. This must be some special “Gud Work” message from one group to another which should be Italian. Just a guess. He he he he he.

PICTURE 5: Where Am I?

THOUGHTS:”HELL ‘o… It’s a grey area that everything lives in… where neither GOD nor SATAN is truly good or evil”

PICTURE 6: See WHO is afraid!

THOUGHTS: To the left is the alien shouting “Wahhh HUMAN’s” Quiet valid. :-)But the real thought is, if you watch closely above the LIFE you can read “YOU ARE YOUR THOUGHTS”. What was that LIFE 316 about?

According to BMJ 1998;316:1841-1842 ( 20 June ) “During the past decade deficiencies in the quality of medical care have precipitated detailed scrutiny in the form of national confidential inquiries. These inquiries have examined perioperative deaths (NCEPOD), maternal deaths, and more recently, babies’ deaths. The 1993 NCEPOD report showed that two thirds of perioperative deaths occurred three or more days after surgery, usually from cardiorespiratory complications and in a ward environment.”

What i infer is, since graffiti are usually something which highlight non-conventional stuff, it could mean that, those defined deaths are not deaths but rather it’s our thoughts which makes what we are. Ahhhhhhh enuf!

PICTURE 7: HAPPY B-DAY

THOUGHTS: Happy birthday ok? For whom. Read from the art. It’s for the LOG HEAD’s. In urban term it mean “Someone who smokes lot of marijuana” ;-)

May be some more after some time!
