My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Re: My Mosaic

Probably depends who you talk to @Bow but in my eyes, you have worth simply because you're alive. There is an entire universe that exists within your psyche that is wholly unique to you. There's hundreds of lives touched by your existence that you're likely completely unaware of. And to your daughter, you're the whole world.

Society often tells us our worth lies in how productive we are, how much money we can put into the pockets of the hyper-rich. But I hate that, I reject that, I refuse to believe that for a second. To me, our worth lies in our unique experiences, perspectives, and learnings - it lies within the fact that there's no one else who is us, who can move through the world in the same way.

What do you believe makes a person 'worthy'?
