Connection to my Resilience Cafe Art

I connect to the resilience art project I am doing because it is showing two people’s different weapons (Frederick Douglas with his finger, Melvin Johnson with his perfection, having all his stripes); my weapon in life is my brain. I use it a lot to solve problems and come up with things that no one has ever thought of before. I can also connect it to the art project because it going to be painted on a banged up piece of plywood. That is kind of like my life, it gets splinters and dents every once in a while, some bigger than others and some deeper than others. It is also like my body I fall and get a cut, however it is now like the plywood because the cut goes away in time it does not stay there forever.
