“As human beings, we are endowed with freedom of choice, and we cannot shuffle off our responsibility upon the shoulders of God or nature. We must shoulder it ourselves. It is our responsibility.” ~ Arnold J. Toynbee
I love the softness that you can observe in the rounded worn shapes of boulders. When covered with moss, lichen or other vegetation, they almost look alive. This boulder covered with succulents reminded me of a human shoulder, and I felt the quote fit the image well.
