My Bedroom Window [a better future]
1 sound
Who was there? Who was there, the question is. I was there because it's my bedroom where I used to live in Picton Road, home. OK? And I have a window, and the window fortunately was facing the sunrise. I can't see the sunset but I can see the sunrise. So this used to be my every morning view. And on a nice weather I would see this exact view which is the sun, the sky, this clubs, OK, and - there are other things here, but because of these sun rays they became shadow, it is like the dark side, all the… So there's a bright side, and there’s a dark side, it will be half empty, you couldn’t see it. So this is what I was seeing in the morning. So I was there. How did that make me feel? It was a mixed feeling, because, I was alone. I was alone. I was isolated - like millions, billions of people - but I was alone in a - in a new country as - in a new place. I don't know many people. But at the same time I was looking forward, I was hoping that the pandemic would finish, that the future would be different, and so the sunlight, usually with the sound of the birds in the morning reminded me that there could be an alternative future, there could be a better future, it could be a better time so I was looking to the bright side of the future, of the image. So it was a mixed feeling. Between positive and negative, between optimistic and looking forward, things will be better, things will change, but at the same time, my kind of situation… I don’t have many resources… I can't know about, I don’t have many people around me I can talk to. And… The next question is, why does it stick out to you? For the obvious reasons, our brains tend to, save strong emotions, both positive or negative. And they are strong and stick our my mind, so that’s why I them today, among many, many.. I’ve lived here for over three years, but this is what stuck in my head, for the obvious reasons. Why did you choose the colors? Oh, obviously it is what I was seeing. It’s the blue, white and the… yellowish, but also the dark and the black or the grey. Thank you.
