‘Success’ handmade collage by Angela Zafiris
My collage is inspired by the meaning of success and especially what it means to people in most countries in our modern society.
I think that it looks like an unintentional vision board 😉
In the past I made myself a vision board-why not? It’s fun, I have my magazines, and you can be as creative as you want to be with your vision board. Although I am not a huge believer in ‘manifesting'( as the new age gurus like to call it) because I think that life is more complicated than that. As the old proverb says ‘man makes plans and God laughs’. Yup very true!
Are we the masters of our fate? Or are we slaves of our fate? Perhaps a bit of both? Who can know for sure?
But, I think about the future and how it would be an interesting thing to look at when one gets old. Imagine when your are in your nineties (God willing and if the apocalypse doesn’t come!) and you are rummaging through your stuff and you come across your vision board. You become overwhelmed by emotions looking at all the positive images that tell the story of all the things that you envisioned for yourself. All the dreams that may or may not have come true. Sad, bitter, happy you decide.
