Mary Ellen Mark Fleeting Quotations

I was thinking about how fleeting and precious life is. Life is also arbitrary. For example, the choices that you make, the luck of being born into the right bed, to parents who support and help you and who love you. That doesn't always happen - and then, what happens when it doesn't?

Looking at my own prom photograph reminds me of how significant that moment was - and how fleeting life is.
