You know... It's so interesting to actually pause and think about these kids as actual humans.

The kids in the painting r uk... Kids. Imagine how silly they were. Imagine what dumb shit they did with their friends. What did their youth look like? Did they find romance that they would've liked? Or did they too face girlfriend/boyfriend issues? How did their kids look like? What was their reaction when they saw their kids for the first time? Or did they just die of disease or war before they could have kids? What did their old age look like? Did they die as content old people? Or did they have to die slowly of some terminal disease?

I don't know about you, but thinking of life and people in this way is interesting and depressing at the same time.
