The 2008 Louis Vuitton 'Journey' ad is making its rounds again. Whilst I'll never sport anything LV, I must say this is one gorgeous and introspective ad.
Call it what you will, cheesy, capitalist, consumerist driven drivel, populist avantgarde, it is stunning. I want to take photos like these!!

I wonder... there's this whole world out there. So many things to see, touch, smell, hear...experience. I want to drive free on an open road, without a worry in the world. I want to climb mountains, I want to breathe...to float on a lake, with the rain gently falling on my face. Perhaps walk down a busy hectic city street/subway station, anonymous to the world. On and on..
It truly is the little things? And I want to do it with you. You are out there...Whoever you may be. I am ready.
But yet...it reminds me...
I know nothing and I am nothing.
With or without you, the world goes on by....
