Awakening

My hope is that whoever sees "Awakening" will pause and enjoy the glowing, sunlit roses - but more importantly, breathe deeply and take in the exquisite freshness and peacefulness of a clear blue sky. "Awakening" is dedicated to everyone who has had some kind of critical moment during this crisis and can't wait to breathe easy, can't wait for life's beautiful, clear blue skies. Every single person on this planet is truly in this crisis together, experiencing the very same hopes and fears for our loved ones and for the future, regardless of economic status, age, gender, politics, faith, or location. In countless ways it seems this terrible, devastating crisis is giving birth to new awareness, compassion, gratitude, and hope - it really is an awakening.
