War Is One Of The Biggest Atrocities That Man Must Commit

After expression through the slideshow for this portion of the class I snarl a mixture of blueness and hope, disgust and inspiration, mental confusion and clarity. These images bounce back and forth from a exigent nestling to one who has had access to medical attention, a naked child screaming in diswhitethorn in the streets to an image of the same woman as an adult, happy and healthy. War is one of the biggest atrocities that man mustiness commit but at the same conviction people ar never as gorgeous or as courageous as when they argon in the midst of crisis.Take the picture of the Young pauperises in Saigon for example. This picture is bittersweet. It is extremely sad but also sincerely beautiful. The infant in the box makes me want to weep but I am comforted by the fact that these two young people ar holding hands. They behave each otherwise. If nothing else these two have that precise human contact that will make their detail bearable. Other examples of this include the shoeshine boys who have congregated together to condition a young Saigon gang. Is this an ideal picture, no, but it is real.These children may have to call forth up quickly but they have each other and they ar living(a) the only childhood they will ever know. only then there are pictorial matters of the young victims of contend, bombard victims and women trying to smuggle her children out of the struggle zone. These are not pretty pictures but over again they elaborate the beauty of the human spirit. Could I appreciate action if I had never seen with my own eyes the trouble of a biography taken too curtly? Could anyone ever know real strength and courage if they had never felt the tinges of fear?There were other pictures that were slightly confusing, such as the photo of the US Marine giving the young girl a cigarette. At first I thought, Why would he give such a young child a cigarette? But then I realized it was because that was all this soldier had to give. I am sure that being an American, used to children having the right to grow up healthy and safe, makes it difficult to see children growth up in the midst of a war zone. It makes one want to rescue each other. And again that is admirable. determine at the girls face in that photo. She is radiant. She is the brightness level in an otherwise bleak world.In response, I really dont know who the groovy guys are and who the bad guys are in these photos. And truly I dont know that it matters. I was motortruck by the strength and beauty that was represented here. Look at the faces in these pictures and you see strength, perseverance, tradition and however love. For example, look at the woman in the photo A Vietnamese Woman, the trials and tribulations of life are inscribed all over her face. Ultimately these photos represent the good and the bad, the yin and yang of humanity. For some strange reason man does not appreciate life until life is taken away.And unluckily the world i s a better place after we have had to clean up the rubble of war and human greed. Somehow in the midst of demolition we find the strength to help each other, plonk up where we left off. Yet, when all is well in the world we get greedy and seek to destroy. These images are timeless. Despite our disgust at seeing a young child tortured we, as a race, will continue to commit these crimes. maybe as a species man has self destructive tendencies. Maybe we can only appreciate the beauty of life when we see the ugliness in death.
