The Cycle of Life
While meandering through the streets that I live, I chanced upon this person and the image/impression that I got in my mind was striking. He was sitting on the side of a temple. The lane is narrow and it is not a comfortable place to sit. Also I found a cycle parked right in front of him giving him a very narrow space to perch himself. He did not seem to mind this at all.

Only when I went near him did I realize that he was blind (or partially blind). So the space which appeared very narrow to us, did not have any meaning for him.

nice shot... Salam Senyum -u1-
Vikram Jamwal  Your photos are so full of life Yuan and I like them!

Thanks for your comments.

I was trying to get the meaning for Salam, but I am unable to get what 'Senyum' means. Will be curious to know. :-)

Good day!

It is a superb photo even without the story. But with the story it gets a really deep meaning!
Vikram Jamwal  Thank you for the nice comments!
I was wondering if the story subtracts from the picture, but your comments make me happy with the decision that I included it. Not a story really, just my impressions at that moment :-).
That is a very interesting read and a great picture!
Vikram Jamwal  Marcus, I felt I should share my story too, so I wrote!
I am glad that you like both! :-).

Thanks!
