For My Father/ Moths

My father passed away six years ago.

In these photos I am wearing one of my late father’s favorite t shirts/pajamas (from 1988 Jerusalem Film Festival), which was eaten by moths. Moths are known (in different Native American cultures) to be messengers of the dead. They represent death in a spiritual way which leads to regeneration and transformation.

My name is Aelita and I have been an Editor for Bored Panda since 2019. I spend my days working with my amazing team and making articles the best they can be.

I have an adorable German Shepherd named Hela and we get into all kinds of adventures together.
