I write :

What we all see

a lady's face peeled halfway
the other half with a small lady
behind the cage
but can we see the finger ?

What I see

THE PRIMARY STATE OF AN INDIVIDUAL

The picture over here portrays

• Two worlds , Two feelings , Two sides :

As I can see the two lives of an individual : the beautiful expressed one and the hidden (caged) one
The both connote the two state of an individual ; happiness and sadness;strength and vulnerability;ups and downs;good and bad;beautiful and ugly and the rest is infinity

If a person's basic state of mind is serene and calm, then it is possible for this inner peace to overwhelm a painful physical experience.(the case of the beautifully expressed face)
On the other hand, if someone is suffering from depression, anxiety, or any form of emotional distress, then even if he or she happens to be enjoying physical comforts, he or she will not really be able to experience the happiness that these could bring(the case of the lady behind the cage)

Perhaps home is not a place but simply an irrevocable condition.

• The finger pointing :

I see this as CHOICE. Human are created to choose; to choose between happiness and sadness;strength and vulnerability;ups and downs;good and bad;beautiful and ugly and so on.

From the picture , the lady portraying an individual has the chose to make either to be the beautifully expressed individual or the little caged individual

Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, it's always your choice.

It is plain, that in the course of our thinking, and in the constant revolution of our ideas, our imagination runs easily from one idea to any other that resembles it, and that this quality alone is to the fancy a sufficient bond and association. It is likewise evident that as the senses, in changing their objects, are necessitated to change them regularly, and take them as they lie contiguous to each other, the imagination must by long custom acquire the same method of thinking, and run along the parts of space and time in conceiving its objects."
