I love this graffiti from a back alley in Bath. I don't know that I've seen happy graffiti like this before. The words scribbled under it intrigue me too, "You might get hit by a bus tomorrow!" I'm not sure if the author of those words intends for you to smile because your life might be over soon or smile because you never know when life will end, but I prefer to interpret it as the latter myself. A reminder not to waste the life we have on frowns.Happy smiley Sunday! I can't wait to find out who is going to win the postcards tomorrow, can you? Today is the last day to enter.
Oh this made gave me a big smile on my face too! Thank you for sharing Kat. Your writing reminded me what my younger brother said before, Enjoy your life now, not because you might die tomorrow, but simply because it's worth it. It chaged me how to look at the value of life and everything. xm
ReplyDeleteIf you like good graffiti you must come to Bristol to see some of Banksy's great ones, every morning on my way to work I go past some my my favorite ones he did in Bristol and they make me smile every time. If you ever decide to visit this part of the country let me know and I'll take you a a little tour of Banksy :)
ReplyDeleteOh Kat!

I hope the rest of your weekend is loaded with smiles!
