This image represents my adopted daughter's journey from China to America. Her adult self reaches out in reassurance to her younger self across a bridge that spans two continents. The words of Buddha speak about the truth that life is like a river that continues flowing endlessly.

The words in the illustration are attributed to Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha.
