Both fragility and strength lie in these intertwining branches, Parc de Edmond de Rothschild, Boulogne-Billancourt.
Remember the Sting song "Fragile?" After reading the latest installment of Australian artist Judy Wilkenfeld's Visual Anthologies, I was reminded that despite our fragility, we also carry vast hidden reserves of strength. And when necessary, we can summon that strength to push us forward through difficult challenges.
Judy's work is truly stunning, artfully blending beauty, humanity and history. Go here to see her thoughtful creations.
Judy's strength is that she is inclusive. Her work is stunning and powerful.

Spring is coming, at least the fragile hummingbirds are visiting the feeders, taking nesting material we hung out of the window, the violets are blooming and all of it reminds me of the delicate balance of Nature. Lest we interfere, both strength and fragility survive side by side by means of tolerance and wisdom. May both thrive among all of us as well.

I wander outside and see the new leaves on the bony structure of naked trees. And admire those branches their longevity and natural beauty.

Oh, I so agree... what doesn't kill us makes us stronger!! Just when we think we can't take any more, that spark within us shines brighter than ever. Thanks for sharing Judy's work!

I believe this in my heart deeply. It is the difficult challenges that come along and make us realize, truly what we are made of. There is a strength that is deep in our souls.
One love.
