Shadows
What are you feeling right now? Happy? Sad? Frightened? Calm? How we feel changes how we perceive things and what is spoken to us. A kind word or gesture can be seen as criticism during a bad mood. During a cheerful mood, a harsh tone may not even be noticed. The skull is a perfect example of this. When one is sad or depressed, the skull represents death and destruction. When one is happy or calm, the skull is beautiful and elegant. People are like that as well.
