Cupcake Mountain. iphone 12 Pro Brushstroke app

You must go in quest of yourself,

and you will find yourself again only in the simple and forgotten things.

Why not go into the forest for a time, literally ?

Sometimes a tree tells you more than can be read in books…

—Carl Jung

Open different doors,

you may find a you there that you never knew was yours.

Anything can happen.

— Julie Andrews as Mary Poppins in the movie Mary Poppins (1964)
