A lot of mental health problems are societal in nature and society has little tolerance for folks a bit too different. The status quo is a powerful tool for keeping things from moving forward. Maybe a lot of the diversity issues of today are the blow back from a century of society's trying to keep things as they are rather than recognize that things indeed do change. Life is more interesting out of our comfort zones. Maybe a bit is discomfort will be like the bit of dirt in an oyster's shell that brings forth a unique and perfect pearl. We can only hope. This is a 6 by 4.5 inches gel pen with color pencil and a bit of acrylic paint marker on manilla paper. Yes, it's Original Jones Art trying to end the month on a note not on any chromatic scale here in northwest Austin, Texas.

Comfort, especially cold one, freezes you, because it's a way, not target. Lovely!
