Pilgrimage

When I see a photo of a pilgrimage or a large demonstration, I often wonder how many people in the photo are thinking:

• How the hell will I get out of here?
• You know I'm here just 'cuz my dad wants me to be...
• If I fall...I am so dead, dude.
• Shoot...Where did I park??
• Maybe I don't feel like everyone else in the crowd, but how do I dare say something?
• I could soooo be home playing Guitar Hero right now.
• Before this moment, I had no idea how claustrophobia felt.
