“Just remember that the things you put into your head are there forever, he said. You might want to think about that.
You forget some things, don’t you?
Yes. You forget what you want to remember and you remember what you want to forget.” ― Cormac McCarthy, The Road

KIEV, UKRAINE: YOU HAVE THAT MOMENT NOW

Published on by jacquelinemhadelLeave a comment

“I won’t tell you that the world matters nothing, or the world’s voice, or the voice of society. They matter a good deal. They matter far too much. But there are moments when one has to choose between living one’s own life, fully, entirely, completely—or dragging out some false, shallow, degrading existence that the world in its hypocrisy demands. You have that moment now. Choose!” ― Oscar Wilde

KIEV, UKRAINE: A RICHNESS TO LIFE

“Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and a richness to life that nothing else can bring.”
― Oscar Wilde

As soon as I stepped out onto the street today, I watched these guys walking by, banging the drums, and singing “Hare Krishna.” ds 009

This is some kind of abandoned, small arena, that has now been taken over by graffiti like ivy takes over a wall…

Since arriving here in February, I haven’t seen any work being done on this structure. It is likely, as is the case for so many of these types of constructions, they were started and then, either the builders ran out of money, or the government was squeezing them for more and more bribes, and they just couldn’t afford it anymore. So, they just stopped.

Lots of graffiti tags can be found in back parking lots and children’s playgrounds in Kiev.

One of my favorite building facades in Kiev. Old photos face out onto Yaroslaviv Street.
