Lost in Translation

Weekly Photo Challenge: UNIQUE

For my birthday a few days ago I made one wish only: to be wiser, and not necessarily older. The photo bellow is a step in that direction.

The owl picture is a royalty free photo found on the Internet, and the merged face is mine. I give you Powla 😉

Typically women – so they have birthday and they care about that they will be a year older – they don’t think about that they will be a year prettier – old women are beautiful… 😉

Happy Birthday, sweet’nd wise Paula… 🙂

Yeah I almost forgets – beautiful eyes – but don’t tell the owl that… 🙂 😉

      Thank you Drake, I should have said the sanity or peace of mind … not exactly the intelligence .. the wisdom to deal with what comes up my way…. this has been the toughest birthday in decades …..

        To enjoy the most fabulous views from the highest mountains, then we must through dark valleys – it has always been my energy when “roads” were most steep… 🙂
