dualism

Sometimes I feel as delicate as the lace I love to wear.

Lace is an openwork fabric. It is formed either by removing thread, or by leaving space intentionally. Its transparency, delicacy, and fragility are its appealing qualities, what make it definitively feminine. I think one can be delicate and fragile, but still strong. One may possess an elegant strength, a graceful resilience, a quiet endurance.

I came across this and I adore it. It looks so Dalí-esque, but painted by Vladimir Kush.

"We're both looking at the same moon, in the same world. We're connected to reality by the same line. All I have to do is quietly draw it towards me."
