Thank you @hrissm!
Yes I agree humans are in constant internal conflict. It would be awesome for people to embody their innate, sovereign power and get over being all broken and weak already...I believe it's a path to freedom and peace but I understand how difficult it is.

Thanks for being honest about your reaction to this photo - I really love this shot because it is intentionally yet completely unthreateningly challenging beliefs. I'm glad you were willing to overcome your prejudice and scope the article anyway and also that you found value in it!
