The only way that we can live, is if we grow. The only way that we can grow is if we change. The only way that we can change is if we learn. The only way we can learn is if we are exposed. And the only way that we can become exposed is if we throw ourselves out into the open. Do it. Throw yourself.

Below is the original photo used to create this image. Found a great moss and lichen bespeckled brick wall on an afternoon walk near Forest Hill Park, in Richmond, VA. No special lighting or retouching, just a snap from my smart phone.
