The fragility but resilience of the pier piling alongside of the reflection made me think how we can survive this time of Coronavirus even if we suffer, have lost so much and have a long way to go before recovery.

On quick walks before coffee I take pictures to inspire others. I look for the beauty we overlook, unless we take the time to let go of the noise of the news cycle and witness things like this 2 millimeter drop of rain.

During quarantine, days of silence, and loneliness, I was stripped of my ego. Transformation is what life is all about, right? All about going through these traumas and coming out a better person. Then, repeating this process all over again. Progress stops for no one, so why would it stop for a virus? Throughout this period of discontent, I became comfortable with the unknown and unsaid as I got acne. Confidence is key however, before quarantine, it’s not true confidence that strangled me in everything i did, it was my ego fighting to live. This image portrays the overwhelming process of shedding my ego. This ego was the false confidence I had over how I looked on the outside to other people. Now, who I am on the inside is where my confidence comes from. Quarantine and the acne that came with it was needed for me to be my highest self, and this image represents this period of growth.
