Human beings are filled with grief. We try to hide this with a sense of belonging to a made-up community, or we hide grief with material possessions, or we focus too much on our children, trying to protect them from this very thing. No one teaches us how to live with grief. We are all on our own. All the sadness comes out in the photograph.
