ni·hil·ism

noun /ˈnīəˌlizəm/  /ˈnē-/ The rejection of all religious and moral principles, often in the belief that life is meaningless Extreme skepticism maintaining that nothing in the world has a real existence

I met a woman on a train who claimed to be a nihilist; that nothing you ever do will have any lasting impact on anything or anyone. I think this photograph is testament to the counter-belief, my own belief, that no matter how insignificant we think or assume our actions to be, this is simply not true. The one inevitability, ironically, in life is that we all die. Just as the Flaming Lips song proclaims. Yet, is it not human nature to maximise the time we do have through actions and activity which we measure by our own subjectivity?
