Trust Your Instincts Bridge tote

Carry your things with Abuela Raquel's beautiful Roman Bridge painting and valuable life lesson - "Trust your instincts" on both sides When you really feel something is right, trust your instincts...invent your own ways if you need to, and trust that it will turn out good This painting is based on seeing this ancient Roman bridge on a trip with her husband Paul. She used a photograph taken by Paul to refresh her memory of this beautiful scene. The bridge and buildings were a bit pink in her memory and in the original photo, but Raquel changed them to grey based on a teacher's advice. At the time, Raquel said, she thought the teacher knew best, so she changed it. Afterwards, Raquel said she preferred it the way she originally painted it, with the pinkish tint from the sun. She said the lesson she learned was to trust your own judgment, depending on what you are trying to achieve. Seek the wisdom and advice of others, and reflect on it. But don't just do something because you think someone else knows better. In the end, do what you feel is best
