Now on a different note, do you believe in fate or does life bring you what you go out looking for and set your mind to? That's what I'm pondering on at the moment. Random, I know!
Have you ever had something where the same thing keeps popping up out of the blue, and little things keep reminding you of that, without even doing anything... strange. Fate is an odd thing. It's like when you look for something, you can never find it. It's when you're not looking for it, it appears from nowhere in an obvious place.
I read the book "The Secret" a while back. It's about the laws of attraction. Not attraction in the sense of relationships, but attracting positive and negative energy. Usually I'm a total cynic about stuff like this and in a way, I still am. But I do wonder whether there is any truth in it. Otherwise, why write it.
I do believe though that you attract positivity or negativity. Even more so after reading this book. Therefore I am sending everyone positive energy, because the more positive you are, about anything, the more positive energy you attract and the happier you are! I sound like someone into all the mystical magical hippy type things, when I'm really not. Just having some strange thoughts recently and trying to work out my confused mind! Or maybe I'm just tired, and really need to get some sleep! haha
On another note, to do with photography, a few years back, I found websites on urban exploration. It's all about finding derelict places and photographing them. I went to an old derelict asylum which has been derelict since the early 90's. It's one of the strangest thing I have ever seen or experienced.
The massive building was all blocked up, except for a few holes here and there, and everything inside was left how it was. As if everyone occupying it just upped and left one day. We found medicines and packets which had sell by dates of 1987, old TVs, cassette tape recorders, old documentation and reels of negatives. Walking through the long corridors in the hospital, with the paint peeling off the ceilings and walls were eerie and I couldn't sleep that night thinking about what I'd seen and imagining what it may have been like 20 years ago. It was interesting though and thinking about it again recently has made me want to look up urban exploration again and find more interesting sites to go and explore and photograph.
I'm dusting off my proper camera again tommorow to go and photograph boring things and make them interesting... hopefully! :)
