For some unknown reason, I really love this image maybe because it has a very touchy story or due to it's perspective. Great shot

I bought a bycle to my son when he was a little child. He was 12 or a little bit older. I was holding from the back side of the bycle and he was trying to go further.. Suddenly he strogly forced the pedals and I can not hold it...I got crazy...He suddenly poped into the havy traffic of the street...But... he maneged weel and he run away from me. I can not tell what I felt. I was proud because my Son did manage the bycle...I was proud because he is not hurted and succeded... I was feeling a litle bit sorry seeing he went away from me.... strange...
...
I captured that photograph of the bycle while my son was away for his military service. He was sent a dangerous place ( southern east of Turkey) I got no news from him. I was worried very much
...
 Joan Baez made an LP year before named as "Where are you now my son"
She recorded some interwievs while she was in Wietnam... One can hear the guns and bombs are shouting in laud voices and she was interviwing with different victims of war. When the talking part finishes she was singing just one sentences saying " I hearht they still didn't finised  the violence of war... BUT WHERE ARE YOU NOW MY SON? "
...
Wish you will never worry that much about the safety of your beloved dauther.
...
Have a nice day

...thank You For telling my Your story...
I was worried, when I saw the title and the imagen as I do know , You have a son, and You mentioned around Christmas time, having talked to him...but I thought, maybe , You had another son,and something happened...I am  glad and relieved-that not.
Concerning the reaction of Your son, when he was a child, after having had " big shock", with this event happening, when he lost control of his bicycle pedals, and crashing unexpectedly into the traffic, he must have had  "the fear of his life "too, as well You had, I bet.
Why he did run away from You...most certainly, because he was in a "trauma"condition , first of all- and second, (I don't know the character or personality of Your son, but most probably, he might also having been ashamed,of having "lost control"(though he was proud the minute before, so maybe he thought, he disappointed you; third possibility, is ,that he was afraid that You might punish him, because he might have thought, that he did something wrong(maybe You screamed,(which would be normal, as You have been scared to death, as well) )...and the child is interpreting it in "his own way"...the psychology of a child is quite complicated... many things are "seen" or dawn on- in a totally different way, when they are little, than when they consider it ,years later,(and also totally different from our point of view, of course.)
My daughter is explaining me often , now ,as she is 14 , what this or this event provoked in her mind,when she was little... fears, impressions, emotions....capacity of of right assimilation", is totally different in every age,and I point out, that every life year , is counting ,in their way  of comprehension...everything is much more "dramatic", or impressive,when they are small...
Maybe one day, You might have a conversation about what happened, with Your son...it might be "insightful"for You both...
I can  furthermore imagine, Your worries ,when he went to the military service...as a good and loving father,You are- this is more than understandable...Your son is lucky, to have such a caring father, as You are...
I didn't know this song of Joan Baez, You are mentioning, I just listened to it, and indeed it is ...heartrending,and profoundly touching.terrible...
I would wish as well, that I never shall have to worry about the safety of my daughter, but as a mother, I am always worried , anyway...day by day, in this mad world , we are living in...though,without putting her "too much under cover", but talking, and talking, about all the dangers existing, but of course, this is another story...
I was particularly touched by this title , photography and ...story...because I have lost a son...not in the way,You might think...but in a cruel and tough one too, anyway...
thanks so much for sharing such deep emotional things...
Take care,and have a lovely end of the week, my dearest Ayhan...

I have only one child (a son), too.  I used to miss him a lot when I had to live 2-3 hours drive away.  But now we live closeby and I see him a lot.  It's nice.  How old is yours?  Mine is 37.  I had him when I was 30.

I have onşly a child also. He is 36 years old now. And he is living in Istanbul; that means he is so far from me...
...
DOn't push me to talk about it; I can spend hours to describe what I am feeling for him; both I was with him or living km.s away from him...

I'm happy you have a son and love him so much. Sorry you are so far from him. You can talk about him if you want. My son and I live a very ordinary, boring life.  Not boring to us, but to anyone else who has to hear about it.  lol  I like living simple.  My whole life right now is my art, my music, music in general, my family, movies, online friends, and trying to get well again.

Do you travel much? I did a lot in my youth with my parents, and then married, and life stopped.  I would travel now, but I'm too ill.  I'd probably miss all my hobbies if I traveled.  I'm enjoying myself too much in this one lonely bleak room I live in for the most part.

I am trying to create some reasons to travel. Mostly some antic cities around me to photograph them all.
You are mentioning about your illness, do you want me to tell about it?
...
some times our decisions creates some results to leave everything behind. Our hobbies, or beloved persons or places. Hope you can remember such days whenever you close your eyes. And I hope you had some persons around you so you can cheer everything when you are spending time with them.
...
See you soon :d

My illness?  My heart may be failing. I'm not sure yet.  Have to take tests and see doctor. Send positive thoughts? 

I live with my family. And I have lots of family online and within 2-3 hours drive if they want to visit.  I am not alone.  And yes I have many fond memories of my childhood.  Bad memories of 28 years marriage. But I'm out of that marriage since 1993.  He has died, too.  

Take good care of yourself. Write when you can.

I am divorced on 1989, till these days to recent ones, I am alone...
My wife is still having her habits and she feels well. We are having phone conversations from time to time...
Sorry to hear that lost your husband. And I want to confess that I bet my wife would died. It would be a kind of persuading myself that the reason of my unhappiness disappeared. I don't want to tell about my marriage...
...
Happy to hear that you are surrounded some friends and relatives in the place that you are living. Hard to stand not to share life with anybody. Loneliness is a kind of illness that never heals

RainySkyz In reply to Hermetic-Wings [2015-08-16 23:06:32 +0000 UTC]

I am sorry you are divorced. Unless it makes you happy? In which case I am happy you are divorced. 

I started the divorce myself.  Including separation, 1993, I am divorced for 22 years.  Best thing to happen.  Worst was the marriage.  Seriously!

You have been divorced even longer than I.

I had many strange, even sad emotions when my husband died a couple years ago, but none of which was love.  He killed that long time ago.  We did not part as friends.  I do not blame myself for the bad in the marriage.  But it did make me angry and a loner for many years afterwards.

I'm sorry your marriage was not happy.  But you still speak to your wife.  That much is good?  My husband and I could not speak friendly. For what he did he may be in hell, if hell exists.  Personally I believe hell just means not allowed to be with or near God after death.  That would be the worst hell for me.  To be denied forgiveness, love, hope, and peace of spirit... that would be a hell.
