One
of the questions I get asked frequently is, why do we include skulls
and skeletons in our designs? I am sure my answer may surprise some
of you. I am reminded every time I see a skeleton that we are all
the same underneath. That popularity status, income bracket, what we
drive, where we live, whether we are married or single, race, creed
or religion doesn’t matter. The common denominator is that we are
all human.
You
see, what a skeleton signifies to me is that we are all equal under
our skin.
Beauty
is not only skin deep but even deeper. Beauty comes from within.
When I look at a skull or a skeleton I am reminded that we are all
human. We all arrived in this world the same way, and none of us are
exempt from death. I am also reminded that we only have this life to
make a difference here on earth.
The
one thing that sets us apart is our choices. We can choose to be a
productive member of society, or we can choose to not be.
I
guess what I am trying to say is, we are more than our skin, and who
we are comes from within.
