My Ideograph of My Feelings

  1. You are thinking about the time and how fast or slow it moves for you. You are also thinking about the sunset and how quickly it comes compared to the summer time. The water drop is calm and can also represent our weather. I'm not quite sure how to describe that as accurately as the others.

  2. Samantha,

    I like how you interpret my ideograph and you definitely got the time part right as well as the water, a single drop in a still pond causing a ripple that will widen out across time.

    I am conscious of time and how much I have left and how much I have wasted and how hard it is to control. We all work under time and time takes over our lives and we don't give ourselves enough time to do the things that should matter and we waste a lot of time on unnecessary things. No one has ever gotten time back and like a drop of water, each second spills out and is emptied into the larger universe of time and space. Maybe that is our fate to be just a single drop of water, but there is a positive side to this notion that in our single existence we merge with a larger force. I see the tree on the hill standing alone on the horizon at twilight as emblematic of this existential dilemma.

  3. I had to think a little about the pictures above. As you said a picture has a thousand words, well there are three here so that is a lot more. The first one I see which is the waterdrop, I take that you see yourself as the element of water, calm and peaceful and like the ocean there is more to you than meets the eye. The picture of the man and the clocks tells me that you see time as endless and there is so much time in one's life. The third picture tells me that you admire nature and probably feel to be connected with it. This can tie to the water drop picture as to be more than meets the eye. Anyway those are my thoughts, very interesting I have to say.
