Drawing & Photo by Lilian Leahy
On a Wednesday morning in an early yoga class, the teacher that day started off ensuring us that ‘A new day, is making new mistakes.” I was mind blown. He couldn’t be more on topic. I had messed up terribly at work the day before and slept not too well the night after because of that. I felt terrible of what had happened. But I realized now that failure is part of every day learning.
The photo was taken on a early morning fishing on the Niger river in Mali in 2010.
