I have always liked this image. It speaks to me…

From the description of the Walters Art Museum:
“In this work, the artist depicts the figure in such a way that most of his face is obscured, creating a sense of mystery. Everything we know about the character of this man is expressed though his posture, clothes, and objects, like his bowl containing a few coins. Very little is known about Camino’s training; he visited Algeria in the early 1850s, which inspired the art he made in the decades that followed.”
The past couple years have been a time of transition. Those can be tough on a soul.
Yep
Change is good. That means you’re alive.
Like pain, change is a good reminder we are alive. It is easy to ignore the absence of suffering and not be grateful for the good stuff. Things are looking up.
