Visualized Humanity's Dignity

What can a picture say about Human Dignity?  Can only a person or an object represent it?  For me, a picture is capable of many effects and is able to communicate volumes of humanity.  This picture was taken while I was walking around Oakland and saw the public health building, it was surrounded by  bright pink blooming trees.  I took a picture, and saw cherry blossoms in my mind and heart.  Even though this picture is not of the real thing, it reminded me of them.

This is Human Dignity invisual form for me. 

In Japan cherry blossoms symbolize the ephemeral nature of life.   The transience of the blossoms is the extreme beauty and quick death, which is associated with mortality.  For this reason, cherry blossoms are richly symbolic, and can be easily utilized into the concept of human dignity.  Furthermore, they have the concept of “Mono no aware,” which means the pathos of things, an empathy toward things, or a sensitivity to ephemera.  It is a Japanese term used to describe the awareness of impermanence.  It is a reminder of how precious life is and to live each day with joy and love towards others. 

Capturing this image brought numerous blissful thoughts.  I could remember the sweet scent and the pink ambience they use to engulf me.  I truly have a powerful dynamic between the subject of my picture and myself.  The power that I feel is security when I am underneath their boughs.  It is as if I have a secret relationship with the photo that no one else can understand, but me.  Moreover, the difference in using imagery rather than words to capture a moment of beauty related to human dignity is quite impressive.  My mind becomes overwhelmed when I look at a picture compared to the written word.  I can see and interpret more with a picture because I am a visualand emotional thinker. 

Human dignity to me is thought largely in a visual sense.  When I see or feel human dignity, I am more adapt to envelope myself it and delve deep into what it is saying to me.  Who knew that one picture would make me think of the transience and beauty of life like this one has made me?  Did my picture do the same for you or different?
