Drown but Not Die
Delaney Kranz’s article, “Drown but Not Die,” left me wondering how different I look in person than I do in a photograph. She wondered the same when someone from her school had past away. After the person died, on Facebook “. . . we could scroll through photos of him holding up his phone before a mirror. And it makes me wonder What does it mean to be a real person now? because this doesn’t seem like a real person on my computer screen,” explained Kranz. I always think about how my life could just come to an end suddenly. I never know when my last day is. Sometimes when I look at a picture of my deceased Great Grandpa, it doesn’t seem like he was an actual real person. Instead, like Delaney explained, “It’s a thousand pixels in a thousand colors on something that looks like something else. . .”
