Thank you for the comment, Pixim. You have comforted me with your observations.
This is a very emotional photo for me. I am saying goodbye to many things here, as I sit alone in the bedroom that my parents shared for 37 years prior to my mother's death 5 years ago.
I am an orphan since my dad died one year ago, and the time has come to sell my childhood home. Trying to hold on to all that I can, I am wearing his sweater and the scarf that I made for him. He was only 65 when he died, but old enough to have been a Navy Veteran of the Cold War. He was very quietly proud of that, thus the patriotic scarf.
I am working on a gallery of photos from my journey through this time of letting go. If you are interested in my journey, you are welcome to visit.

More than one self-portrait, it is of true feeling that you want to show us. I like your placement in the light, as well as framing, those reassure me for the future. Does the scarf that you carry have to be interpreted?
In any case, a photo full with force. Greetings.
