Thanks. It was fun creating it! It took me 5 minutes to write and 25 min to decide on a picture 😆

Years ago, I saw a puzzle in a novelty store. Both sides were printed and you could decide which side you wanted to piece together. I was looking at one that was a house on fire, and the other side was a sunset. Another puzzle was blank on both sides. It was for people that enjoyed the challenge of puzzles.

That could get confusing with fire and sunset. Plain puzzles are saved for the obsessed puzzlers, I guess. 😵‍💫

Thanks, Pamela! It came to me while I was attempting to meditate last night. I never know when inspiration will hit!

My inspiration often hits upon awakening, in the shower, and during walks.
