Perfect, my daughter is like this these days 🙈. Self confidence is beautiful but over confidence is not good.

Aw, it’s wonderful that your daughter is feeling good about herself. But you make an important point about the dangers of overconfidence, Anjali.

What a WONDERFUL photo with a wonderful message. As a cat person (my mom said my first word was ‘cat”) it touches my heart as well as sending a lovely, encouraging message. This photo made my day …

That is delightful. Which painter inspired this? Van Gogh? Rembrandt?

Thanks, David. It is, isn’t it?! I couldn’t find an image source or background for this particular version. I would guess it’s fashioned more on Rembrandt.

OMG, i LOVE this artwork – I actually wrote a blog article reflecting on that popular image of the kitten looking in the mirror and seeing the lion. THIS version is so much more empowering than the popular one – and truly embodies ‘confidence’! i’d be honored if you felt like reading my thoughts ( https://wordpress.com/read/blogs/162554741/posts/947 ) and see if they resonate with what you were getting at! thank you for this image.
