everything is so a**backwards… it seems as if the more we desire to hold onto something it is soon changed and gone regardless…

I really liked this, mostly as it reminds me that everyone struggles with self-image and who/how we see ourselves is often not how others perceive us to be.

There are as many perceptions of self as there are people. The transition in the photo is marvellous, but I suspect the title of the top half should be ‘optimism’, and the bottom, ‘pessimism’.

Interesting thought. I had to read it a few times for it to sink in good. I still don’t know if it would mean that, though. Good match with the picture.

The poem has hit me hard. Makes me think about the job I do only because I need a check.

Very powerful visual.

Hope to see this Friday for the next Rockin’ Chair Writers prompt.

If only we could all see ourselves the way others do, we would be surprised how different we are from the way we view ourselves. Our currency would be much more valuable than we realise.

Hi Jodi

Very profound… we come into this world and acquire and give as we go on with our lives. Somehow, I would like to think that I could leave behind a footprint of my existence so it wasn’t for not.
