Life's journey often takes us through valleys of sorrow, places where pain and heartache seem to stretch endlessly before us. Yet, it's within these challenging times that we find the seeds of transformation, the potential for profound change that can lead us to a place of liberation and inner peace. I'm On The Other Side If It Now explores how we understand and navigate this journey from sorrow to liberation and all that the valuable insights into our own paths of healing and growth.

Sorrow is a powerful, often overwhelming emotion that touches everyone at some point. It can be triggered by loss, disappointment, or profound change, leaving us feeling adrift and heavy-hearted. Acknowledging and embracing our sorrow is a crucial step in the transformative process. It’s in these moments of deep sadness that we confront our vulnerabilities and begin to understand the depth of our emotions.

Rather than resisting or suppressing our grief, allowing ourselves to fully experience it can be a profound act of self-compassion. Sorrow, while painful, is also a teacher—one that reveals the intensity of our love and the significance of what we have lost. This recognition can be the first step toward healing.

In Time Will Soften The Edges , the artist delves into the subtle, transformative power of time on our memories, emotions, and relationships. The piece features a woman slightly elevated, observing a couple holding hands, evoking a sense of reflection, and distance. This visual arrangement invites viewers to contemplate the ways in which time influences our perception of love, connection, and life’s more intense moments.

The phrase "time will soften the edges" speaks to the natural process of time easing the sharpness of experiences. Whether it’s the pain of loss, the intensity of love, or the complexity of past relationships, time has a way of blurring those harsh edges, leaving behind a softer, more tender perspective. The woman's elevated position might suggest a vantage point of understanding, as if she has gained a broader view through the passage of time, enabling her to see beyond the immediate details and embrace a gentler, more compassionate outlook.

The couple holding hands serves as a poignant symbol of unity and connection. Their closeness contrasts with the woman’s slight distance, illustrating the different ways we experience relationships over time—sometimes deeply entwined, sometimes as a quiet observer from afar. This dynamic suggests that, while emotions and connections may be intense in the present, time has the power to transform how we hold these memories.
