Louise Hay affirmation:   “I bless other’s good fortune and know that there is plenty for all.”

Inspiration exercise from 365 Daily Creativity Journal:   Make something that involves medical supplies or things you’d find in a doctor’s office or medicine cabinet.

Comments:  More than simple medical supplies, this collage is more of a commentary on the state of health in the US today, as well as ruminations about architectural design that addresses urban health.  

The 1973 National Geographic illustration of an ancient doll wrapped in mummy-like bandages, discovered in 1917, shows a fellow who appears to have undergone medical intervention.  Apparently, our medical dilemmas are nothing new, they're just wrapped in different 'bandages' today.    

I added the whispy fabric and lighted butterfly image from a recent Interior Design magazine in the background to represent the soul as its own life force that simply occupies the body for a time.  The soul won't be weighed down by today's medical dilemmas.  There is plenty of optimal health for all.
