I follow the poet and photographer, Abraham Menashe on Facebook. This week he posted this image with the text below. You can see more of his images here. I contacted him and asked his permission to repost his images and texts. He said yes. You will see more of his work on HealthCetera in the future. But you don’t have to wait – you can go there now.
