As an avid Yelper, I tend to not only take pictures a foods and inner interior of businesses, but pictures of the outdoor scenery too. Furthermore, while driving through Wicker Park neighborhood of Chicago, this caught my attention as I waited for the traffic to start moving. Living in a congested city like Chicago, silence equals complicity has meaning because so many wrongdoings in our city go unsolved which befuddles me. It leads me to believing that most people see things, but they do not report them because it does not pertain to their own lives or either their just too afraid to get involved with the situation. You are either part of the solution to fix it or involved with problem, but that is just my opinion.

I agree with your premise, although we don’t seem to agree on what the problems that need fixing truly are. I diligently work to create solutions.
You are right, so many will turn their heads, not wanting to get involved.
I live in one of the more grimier areas in the city where there is always people roaming the streets, and the crime is high yet the perpetrators never are caught. Its mind boggling
Hey, I don’t know that you turned out to join this challenge too!
Well, it is understandable that people, in general, do not want to be dizzy with other people’s problems so caring is running low. Especially if it can be detrimental especially if it can harm or be considered dangerous.
Cool pic!
Yep I’m still in this challenge and it seems like a fighting for my life because I am not out as much. Once it warms up I hope to share more pictures in this challenge because I will be out on my bicycle or running. Thank you. I wish you an energetic day ahead. May you every day be blessed with the best. Have a nice day
If I may suggest, it’s good if you don’t always have to show great pictures out there because you can also create beautiful or cool images of what’s around you.
I will keep that in mind. That would actually be fun putting together paragraphs on my perception of what I see, and what I am feeling.

And that is the sad part about the world we live in.
it is one of the sad parts, but there is a whole jigsaw puzzle of sadness in this world
That sounds really interesting Alex
I can tart it up for you, but it doesn’t ease the suffering of billions
