British artist Stuart Semple released 2,057 smileys made of helium, soap and vegetable dye over the city of London as part of his “Happy Cloud” installation.“I know at times like this it’s easy to make creativity a low priority,” Semple was quoted as saying. “But I want to show on a very human level that an artistic idea might be able to do something important, even for a fleeting moment.”

You ever look a picture of yourself, and see a stranger in the background?. It makes you wonder how many strangers have pictures of you. How many moments of other peoples life have we been in. Were we a part of someone’s life when their dream came true or were we there when their dream died. Did we keep trying to get in? As if we were somehow destined to be there or did the shot take us by surprise. Just think, you could be a big part of someone elses life, and not even know it.

Lucas Scott, One tree hill

.. this is probably one of my favorite OTH quotes. ever.
