heartquake

How can you imagine a future for yourself while the big shake is on the way and the shakes constantly change what you’ve dreamed of? In a land where people grow up hearing about ancient cities once they have been all destroyed by earthquakes, how can you build something when you know it’ll eventually be demolished? How can you put trust in an institution which is basically a building made of concrete?  When everything keeps falling apart, what is left other than each other’s support and the endless effort of human beings? Maybe to a far extent, this may even explain the so-long-presence of the one political person.

 

People do not have to have anxieties just because of political situations or maybe all the anxieties are political.

 

Corinth, the homeland of Sisyphus is one of the most seismically active places in Europe.
