Puzzle Description:

Jill Bolte Taylor talks about her "Stroke of Insight" while gesturing to a colorful diagram of the human brain. At this point she is saying, "We are the life force power of the universe. We have the power to choose, moment by moment, who and how we want to be in the world."

Jill is a neuroscientist who experienced a left brain bleed, and survived to tell her amazing story.

brainy series :)

Great one Teresa,i love how you made her left foot and the red at the base of her feet,i also love how it's not necessary to have a face on people to make a great image.

Jill's story is amazing. So is your creative puzzling!

Thanks. I chose this one because my mom just had a stroke. She has regained enough use of her legs to walk again, but is still having trouble with one side of her face, which makes talking and eating difficult. Funny thing is, she is in "little girl" mode. I'm glad I had already watched Jill's talk as it helps me understand a little of what is going on with my Mom, and it gives so much hope to stroke survivors.

Sorry about your mother, but it's good that you're getting some insight.

I just heard that today she was tap dancing with her physical therapist. :-)

Thanks, Tom.
