so i visualized this a lot differently in my head. The first thing that directly inspired this image was the Multiply theme from the Teleidoscope group along with seeing a real bullet Lorenz had in his room from his brother, who is in the Army. Originally I was planning on taking this picture with a bb gun we both bought a while ago instead of the knife, along with a pile of bodies on top of each other. However, I couldn't get access to the gun at the time since Lorenz was out and I only had about a half hour worth of sun left so i grabbed the knife instead and some fake blood and found this path.

I also watched Tony Robbins on Oprah in my public speaking class and it really inspired me. Hes a motivational speaker but instead of only talking about thinking positively he focused more on how people let their pasts hold them back instead of allowing them to grow. I know far too many people who have this problem and stress about their pasts more often than moving forward. Its a shame and I hope they realize one day they are only hurting themselves.

this is open to interpretation but i like to imagine it as me "fighting off my demons" .

I swear ive been taking pictures, i just havent had the time to edit or upload them. Im going to sleep now but tomorrow ill finish and ill be all caught up again. I was feeling a little cinematic with this one.
