About the Project
My project is based on the idea of the world fade away. The basis of the meaning of the word is fading away and the death.
In the first meaning, one person who failed which make him struggle to stand up again, perhaps he rejects to stand up again. Therefore, he might shut down all the connections with the world and slowly die mentally and physically. While people try to help him, he keeps rejecting the help eventually the people eventually give up on him.
On the contract, people might not care about his existence in the first place, then they may not bother to help him. Whose fault? There is not a clear answer for this question.
Lastly, as we become busier and busier so we may not have enough time for our family or we barely talk to someone with a family. The hearts become far always, even though our bodies are near. Then would we still consider as human or become a robot. We still breath in and out, the heart’s still beating, it is a proof that we still alive but the soul where it has gone. At that point do we still consider being as alive or death?
I am special thanks to Carol Witney who proofreading my text and also read my text.

Fadeaway
When we think about fading away the first thing that comes to mind is death or disappearing gradually.
The blood in his veins still flows, his body still breathes air in and out and it reminds us of the existence of the self. But then the sound of his voice becomes unheard, unnoticed and unreached, the words are unread. His body is like an empty shell without a soul, wandering around without purpose.
He is struggling to remember his reason to live and his feelings and emotions but can’t. He feels lost in this massive world, talking to people becomes painful. Slowly, the existence of his self is fading away.
