The Moment She Chose Herself (Element piece)
QUOTE THAT INSPIRED THIS PAINTING:
"To live the life you were born to live, you must let go of the life others expect you to live."
— Joseph Campbell
MY POEM FOR THIS PAINTING:
She didn’t ask for permission.
She didn’t wait to be chosen.
She didn’t explain her turning.
Like the sunflower,
she simply followed the light.
Not the loudest voice—
but the truest one.
The one that rose softly from within,
warm and insistent as morning sun.
And when she turned toward it,
everything changed.
Because that was the moment
she chose herself.
WHY I CHOSE SUNFLOWERS: For their unwavering instinct to follow the light — turning always toward brightness, leaving the shadows behind! Plus I love the happy, bright yellow colour of them.
