I remain a child

I remain a child

This painting was just an image I had in my mind. It wasn’t supposed to be a deep painting. Just a little girl, eating an apple in honor of Tu Bishvat.
As I was painting her, she started to look more and more like me. I started identifying with her in a way I didn’t see coming.
No, I am not a little girl. The things that were a mystery to me as a child are just a part of life now. But in many ways,
I remain a child.
In many ways we all do.
The answers we obtained in adulthood, only opened a Pandora’s box of infinite questions.
So here’s a painting with no strong words, No moral, just a child, wide eyed and clueless to the world, in the same way that we all truly are.

The children are content in their father’s arms. They have their treats and are happy to be part of the excitement. The men say a prayer on their behalf. After all, they are just babies, Incapable of prayer just yet. I watch the kids from the women’s side, So innocent and carefree. How absolutely adorable they are collectively! I look at the adults surrounding me. We look sure and in charge. Yet even the oldest among us, are as powerless as the baby in its mother’s womb. I smile at the scene before me, But the view from my heart is different than my eyes. All I see,is a room full of children, praying for their father to protect them and take them home.
