i took this photo today, mid-afternoon, at treptower park. the roses are slowly wilting, but the glory of their colors arrested me — if only for a moment — to wonder if there was a way to live life, such that each moment could be felt with its full vibrancy and beautiful intensity — even the moments that suck. what if the bitterness, too, could be simple and sweet?
