Deck of cards - week 21

The word "change" reminds me of my favorite symbol: the Butterfly. Without the changes in life, life would be uncompleted.

I've made a card with a picture of me as a kid, together with a big tool box. During the last 3 years I've gone through a lot of changes, and when I look back, I see that there are some necessary tools that make changes possible. So, I filled my tool box with these tools, as a remainder to myself. I wanted to use this photo to illustrate that I'm not necessarily changing to a different person. I think that all the changes I've made, is a part of me becoming more of the person I was meant to be.

So, thanks, Em - loved this prompt, needed this prompt!
