How times have changed.
September 22, 2013
To this day it still confuses how much things can change in only a small amount of time. Where it be environments, people, animals, anything really. Time is a wonderful thing, it can make you forget the past, including those cringe worthy moments where you had that hairstyle, where you said that thing that still embarrasses you five years later or even when you were head over heels in love, completely obsessed with that person.
Time allows us to grow and change, view what has happened in the past and learn from it. In some cases time even repeats itself whether this be the remaking of legendary movies from your childhood or even just common trends in society. Time allows you to learn from your mistakes, something which is everyone should have at the top of the 'to do list.' Look back at those huge mistakes from the past and take a moment to smile and laugh at your stupidity, whether it be last week or even 10 years ago, then learn from it. Make a promise to yourself to never do that again.
This image is a perfect example of time in action. These photos brought tears to my eyes. The first is the characters of Lucy Pevensie and Mr Tumnus in the 2005 film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. The second was taken in 2013 and features Georgie Henley and James McAvoy. When viewed separately this photos just seem like two people taking a photo together, granted the first was in odder circumstances. Though when placed together it releases those emotions which make you yell from happiness and sob uncontrobaly at the same time. It other words it becomes something beautiful.
Growing up this film meant a lot to me. It shows viewers that even in the darkest of times, when all hope is lost, somthing amazing happens which will change your life forever. Something so fantastic that no one would believe you if you told them and to this day it gives me hope that something wonderful like this will happen to me, nothing too big, just something simple that will have a huge impact on your life. Then in a few years I will look back at photos before this 'thing' happened to me. Laughing would definitely occur and then I would think to myself, how times have changed.
