Zonip the Bear

Why is that photo a little distorted?

You might ask that as you stare into my header. The picture of a stuffed toy surrounded by red leaves is a little corrupted and you would wonder why. The truth is my laptop, namely Lex, has a problem with his usb cord and pictures, music and videos coming from a usb to my laptop will be corrupted. Like what happened to that picture above.

But then, why did I still choose that photo to be my header?

Other than the fact that I took that photo, I also thought that the photo symbolizes who I am.

Zonip the bear is alone in a rough road but surrounded by beautiful red leaves. And then, there's the distortion of the photo.

Aren't we all in our rough roads? We're all in a rough journey in our life. The hard rough cemented road is the path we should take in order to be where we want to be. That's the price to pay of having what you want. Some are not brave enough to take on the journey and just stop while some are brave enough to walk the road barefoot and now, we look them up from below.

Those brave beings were able to see the beauty that lies in the rough road. Those brave beings had beautiful red leaves to be distracted with when the pain in their foot is getting a little strong. The brave ones kept the red leaves beside them and did not let the wind blew them away. Family and friends are those people who will be the one with us when things get too rough for us. They will be the one to tell us that everything will be ok when we seem to give up. Yes, they are the red leaves and people shouldn't let the wind blew them away. It’s a rare occurrence that the wind will blew the same leaves to you when it has already been blown away.  

Distortion. Our lives are not perfect. What we want, we might not always get. Who we love, might not love us back. That's what the distortion in the photo represents.

Isn't Zonip the Bear in a Lonely Rough Road represents all of us?
