Discarded
This way, makes light, of the Truth
The order that our mind seeks is like a ladder, built to attain something. But afterwards you must throw the ladder away, because you discover that even if it was useful, it was meaningless. Perhaps the only truths that are useful, are instruments to be thrown away. Then why do we still fence in that which we should discard?

i like it. reminds me of jeff wall's war game; discarded items.except the boy made some use of it.perhaps one man's trash is another's home.
i know these chairs! nice one.
Jes: Its in Katong! Opposite the famous Indian Temple.
Anonymous: Glad you like it! I don't think this photo was particularly inspired by Wall's War Game. Although I must admit that there is some similarity. I must confess that I am a closet hoarder who is trying to kick the habit. I have always been fascinated with junk, especially junk that was at one point in time useful; such as furniture or tools. Things that we discard after being expended. Often I wonder if there is meaning in that and whether everything has a Purpose for if not how do we know when to trash something.
SH: Thanks!
I love that ladder analogy by Wittgenstein!
I love it for its "meaning"!
