So, you look at those captains and then at yourself
and you wonder: “Why them, and not me?”
As you paddle along in your pitiful state,
a canoe you hope no one will see.
But there’s just enough room for those trusted to you
for safe passage, provisions, and tare.
So, you keep to yourself, and you follow the shore,
making passage for those in your care.

Made a design of Astarte Canaanite Goddess with asherah poles on surrounding her. She sits on a throne with a lion on one side and a bull on the other of the throne. They sit on the edge of moonlight where love becomes force, and beauty becomes command.
Below the image add the text "Healing Goddess" using an ancient style that recalls Greek script.  Above the design add the text "ASARTE"

Astarte is one of the oldest goddesses of the ancient Near East a celestial queen of love, fertility, war, and sovereignty. She rules with a gaze of starlight and hands that both heal and burn.

The design is made to look like a pendant or medil honoring her radiant complexity.  She is the mother goddess woman crowned with planets, adorned in sacred fire, and feared by kings.
As the night star rises, so does her voice a hymn of sensuality, rebellion, and divine embodiment.
First century Palestine.  Jesus sits on a rock on a hillside teaching a large group of His disciples.  The Sermon on the Mount.  Jesus wears a plain robe like most ordinary men.  Jesus' face is kind, but intense, as He teaches. The other people are mostly peasants, farmers, and tradesmen.  There are also women present, wearing plain, everyday clothing.  Some couples have also brought their children.  The Sea of Galilee shines in the far distance.
Walking into a workshop, a clean, but well-used work area with low light, I see a straight-on view of an old workbench with a vise mounted on it, with tools hanging on the wall behind it.  A handsaw, brace-and-bit, several different size and styles of screwdrivers, several chisels hanging in a rack together, a couple mallets and clawhammers, and particularly, a large carpenter's square.
An interior scene, walking into an old woodworker's shop.  I see a workbench in front of me with a woodworker's vise mounted on it.  Several chisels, screwdrivers, mallets, claw hammers, and other such tools are hanging on the wall behind the bench.  A broken Windsor Chair is positioned on the bench ready for repair. Ambient light is low, and beams of light are streaming in from a source above, with motes of dust floating around in them.  Everything is read for work.
