I was thinking of the virus and all the people who have died from it. And the sadness and suffering of those families. This image was done after looking up at the sky one day in July 2020, and seeing clouds moving fast. I was imagining all those I've lost from my family (not from virus but years or decades ago) - and even though they are gone, how their strength and presence is still with me.

I found myself standing at this fence wondering if fences are better at keeping things in or keeping things out? And how it parallels so many things these days… do these keep animals or trespassers out? What about masks… can’t breathe air kept in vs keeping germs out… do border walls really stop disease at the border? How does the mind filter the “truth” in while keeping “fake news” out? We clearly need structure and boundaries but where’s the line “ in the land of the free and home of the brave”? …. Are we ever really safe?
