He says “if I weren’t a rooster, I would be a lucky guy - but because I’m a rooster, I would trade some grain for all the jewels in the world!“\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis story is a good reminder that beauty and value are “in the eye of the beholder”. What you value may be completely different than me. That’s a part of the human experience! This story also reminds us that we can value things that are not worth our time and effort. This picture humbles me to re-center my heart on the things that I should be considering precious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI thought it would be fun to change the story slightly to stress the juxtaposition. He’s now in a treasure trove, but all of his attention is on a juicy corn kernel!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Luke Vann Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47754968629501,"sku":null,"price":500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/8067\/2765\/files\/FullSizeRender_eb0faf86-652e-47c3-91c1-1960e980cc2e.heic?v=1782345244","url":"https:\/\/vannacrylics.com\/products\/the-beholder","provider":"Luke Vann Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
