In this piece, I imagined a little girl who grows, panel by panel, alongside the plant she once placed in the ground, until she becomes an elderly woman resting in the shade of what has now become a tall tree.

The theme of this issue is “THE CARE”.

We soon realise that attention and care are not the same. Attention can last just a moment, even an intense one. Care, instead, requires presence, responsibility, openness. And time. Offering attention means showing deep interest in someone or something. But those who care do more than show interest. They become part of what they nurture.
