Do we admire her beauty because she was clad and adorned with precious bits and pieces? Or because through her we are reminded of our relationship with a personal, loving Creator? Do we look beyond what our eyes can see and consider that there are many significant things to life than meet the eyes?

What does this picture illustrate? Who is really in need, the man on the left who seemingly denied of material things or the man on the right who is seemingly reaching out? It may surprise us that in fact they are both in need and at the same time extending help. But in giving it is plausible to ask what profit can someone have in giving if his (her) soul is thirsting for spiritual richness?
Who holds the future? The grown up who is dependent on the nation’s hope or the young one who is dependent on the counsel of the wise? The father (parents) may ask “where I went wrong?” while the child muses, “where do I begin?”
Is our reflection reflects our existence, or our existence is but a reflection of our perfect self? We might consider that we are actually looking at two flying birds in the picture.
