Sojourn of Ben

The Teddy Bear. The ultimate form of unconditional love, compassion, and safety. When kids are little, they find sanctuary in this piece of fabric stuffed with cotton. This safety net is something that helps us grow up with a sense of security.It takes away our fears, and gives us light, warmth, and happiness. This bear is the symbol of safety. It represents the innocence of childhood. Something that has long since been forgotten in our older years. To put your entire trust into an object, a friend, is something that has also been forgotten. We, as people, need to remember the innocence of our childhood. The memories of the past can/will be the tools that we can utilize to influence the future.
