Optimism
I have the great fortune of being a part of a developing research project on "re-entries" - that is, the process(es) by which individuals emerging from various institutional settings "make it" in society and what helps or hinders this process. We'll be interviewing folks coming out of prison, chemical dependency treatment, mental health treatment, foster care, and military service. Somehow I feel like this picture captures the hope of re-entry...

As my once favorite (now disbanded) band Helva once sang, "The world's a pisser and I'm just the ring around the bowl... I try to clean it, but I just get pissed on more and more."

Great imagery, Erin! Though I was going for a bit more of a positive spin.
