Sheds his old skin
Starting life fresh.

Very clever approach to the contest, Jimmy. And it really says much more beneath the surface. We all deserve a chance to shed our old skin and start a new life. And the time is coming when you'll be doing just that! Great entry and I wish you success in Andrea's contest. Love, Carolyn
