The symbolism I see is someone keeping their head above water.. staring a challenge in the face and fearlessly rushing to take it on!
I'd say you are growing older pretty well, Patricia.
Wishing you a very Happy Birthday!

Thank you, Carolyn, Terry, Bill, Dan, Diane, Stephen, Debra, Donna, Jane, Sanjay and Arya!

Carolyn, you are so right. A tsunami-like challenge in life would be too much!

Terry, thanks for thinking of George too. LOL! By the way, this wasn't converted to black and white. It was overcast and foggy, so it just looks like it. :-)

Wow, Bill, I love your assessment of the meaning of this image. That's what I meant, I just didn't have the eloquent words you did. :-)

Diane, thanks. That journey may lead me to membership in AARP in a couple of years. LOL! #1079286
