Description


People are like Roses.
We All Have Many Layers.
And That Is What Makes Us All So Unique and Who We Are.

True "Peace" Is Being Able To Be Okay With Each Petal.

The first time I heard this wonderful way of thinking was in reference to an onion having many layers.

I'm happy it applies to Roses, too! Much nicer atmosphere for me to be swirling around in. HeeHee...

Thanks for visiting.

You appear to be very busy Laura - You are going in circles!! Outstanding as always! #11085397

Thank you Colette, Mare and Jeff!

I think Jeff hit the nail on the head. :D

But in reality I meant to honor the saying and thought here. :)

Sad home front this week because we might have to put Fangy down. Lucky was put down 3 years ago. Old age (18) and Kidney failure, Pookey 2 years ago, went crippled with arthritis age 17 or 18. And Now Fangy. Neuropathy from his Diabetes he has had for 6 years +. My heart is breaking at the moment...

Trying to keep our chins up around here.

Thanks for visiting. I appreciate it.

A brilliant presentation Sister Swanee! I am so sorry to hear about the loss to your family! #11086511

LOVE IT, Sister!

Wonderful work and very unique.

Also quite thought provokating.

I see many different perspective here.

We're never alone, 'cause we're always surrounded by angels or loved ones (in spirit).

It could definitely be different levels of personality.

And I also see it as the path of life - we walk through life in a circle - we come from spirit - and we return to spirit.

All together a very interesting image, SSSLala. #11086817
