RE: Faces in the History and Dialogue with the Past
an intriguing post, @slowwalker. You are a man who pays attention to life when all the rest of the world seems asleep to its beauty and wonders.
What makes a worker want to leave his imprint on the world? Perhaps we all lament our fleeting lives and leaving our mark is a way to defeat time.
Recognizing our own face is a mark of consciousness, of being self-aware. It distinguishes us as humans.
The one thing you find when you study history is that fashion and culture changes, but the human heart never changes.
You began a dialogue with the past by using your imagination to connect with a person centuries ago who was making his mark on a roof tile.
By writing this post, you are making a mark of your own.
Deep thoughts to ponder, my friend :)
