Free Essay: A Picture of You


How long do you think a picture will last?
A photo of you may be taken every time with a camera. Whether it is a memory to be captured, or taken in with the spur of the moment. But nonetheless, it is something that reminds you of the memories of the moment. With just a look of that photo, a nostalgic feeling wraps around you which will leave you reminiscing. But just like how some memories can be somehow forgotten with time, how long will a picture full of memories last? Even if you keep it hidden away somewhere safe and sound, will it still last? A day will come where you will leave the face of the earth. And you will remain in the minds of those close to you or those who know you whether by name or personality. Maybe you will have photos of you, which will remind them of their times together with you. But will those memories of you be passed on? Maybe not. No matter what we do, the time will come where the human civilization will eventually come to an end. And the face of the earth will once again be cleared for a new kind of species to dominate it. But if maybe, there is ever a chance, they will build a new civilization once again, and hopefully, as they search far and wide throughout the world we once lived in, they will eventually come across a certain item that will leave them in question. A certain item that will serve as a proof that you had once walked the same earth as them. A proof that says, "I was once here", and that proof itself, will be the picture of you.
