Pomegranates have a rich symbolism across many cultures and myths. It is associated with the Greek goddess of love, Aphrodite who planted the first pomegranate tree. In ancient Rome and Persian cultures, it was considered a symbol of prosperity and fertility. In the myth of Persephone - goddess of rebirth, Hades uses pomegranates to tempt the goddess to stay in the underworld. Here the symbolism relates to death and the transition between seasons.

“A statue isn’t built from the ground up—it’s chiseled out of a block of marble—and I often wonder if we aren’t likewise shaped by the qualities we lack, outlined by the empty space where the marble used to be. I’ll be sitting on a train. I’ll be lying awake in bed. I’ll be watching a movie; I’ll be laughing. And then, all of a sudden, I’ll be struck by the paralyzing truth: it’s not what we do that makes us who we are. It’s what we don’t do that defines us.”
