Description Inspired by the wonderful picture "Feeling Human in the Wilderness" by
and by the wonderful poem "I am the Water" by [link]

When I look into the water,
I see myself, my whole self
Not just a reflection
But everything that lies within

I see the scum and the muck:
All of the sins I need to forgive myself for
Every imperfection of body, mind, and soul
Each harmful object I must remove

I see shallowness: my weaknesses
And all the bumps and holes: my fears
But then I realize:
It's nothing to be ashamed of

Because lastly I see the life
And I know that without everything else
As well as my friend the water that bears it all
This life cannot exist



I dedicate this work to all my beautiful friends,who brighten my life with their love and support!!



For the contest "A free theme" of held by and

It won the second place!It is a great honor!Thank you!

Love the strange feel of this. She looks strangely calm being surrounded by all those scary hand.
