A look at the mind is a great take on the prompt, but you scared me with the words "instigated my leap." Phew.The human brain hides many unknown powers in its folds.

I think those that love what they do for a living are truly blessed. I agree with you, I admire those that simply just perform for the beauty of the performance, not for the fame. This oddly enough also resonates with me when it comes to my line of work - the best scientists are those who work to truly discover something revolutionary that will help and improve our lives, without expecting any recognition for their discoveries.;)Love the images and their narrative.;)xoxo > read more
