"For some people, some financial security is enough to feel safe, some of them are looking in deeper thoughts like mental safety and sometimes we feel safe when people just say the right words for us, unfortunatelly some people will not find safety in life.
For this topic, I wanted to follow a bit from previous theme, and that was "Family".
As we already know, we do not choose a family, but we can choose friends.People with whom we spend our leasure time, tell them our dreams, but also our problems, problems in the school, in our families....so we often come across the notion that friend is our chosen family. With our friends we feel safe, we feel more understood and especially in sports, we feel that we can forget about our problems....at least for that 90-120min of training.
Sport can help us create a stronger bond, focus on that certain exercise, see our friends around us, talking to us, support us, all these emotions in these two hours of training with our friends, is sometimes so helpful and we can feel safe enough."

"As for me, the more I thought about "safety" after our messenger conversation, the more I kept going back to the idea that safety is only a temporary state of mind. We think about it only when we're confronted by danger or when we have just gotten away from danger. It is that duality that I try to express with my image for this assignment. The broken bowl suspended in a bottle as if protected from the elements and at the same time to protect others from its fragments' sharp edges. The bottle, therefore, becomes the safe enclosure to which the broken can retreat so they cannot damage and be damaged further. The bottle itself being broken speaks about the fragility of such safety as nothing is permanent"
