Illustration Friday : Surrender

Cherry blossom tree / Cerisier en fleur



" There is no desolation when it is time for my flowers to die. People marvel at them and they are right because soon they will be able to eat my fruit. Life is not only about building, it is also about surrendering..."


"Il n'y a pas de désolation lorsque vient le temps pour mes fleurs de mourir. Les gens s'extasient et ils ont raison, parce que bientôt, ils pourront manger  mes fruits. La vie ne consiste pas seulement à construire, mais aussi à se rendre..."

    Thank you Paula. I thought the text might not be explicit enough, so I'm glad it was for you.

    Hi Stella, nice illustration and I love the writing. So true! I'm looking forward to cherry blossoms, probably very soon here in California...
