Good morning! I am interested in the beautiful graphic that you posted online and found it on Pinterest. I did an Autobiographical Thesis at my university in Vancouver, Canada. I was moved by the graphic because it helped me articulate what I was trying to convey in my piece. I would like to have your permission to utilize your graphic before my thesis is finally and officially posted by Simon Fraser University. Would you be open to my use of your image? Please see a piece of what I have written:
Being faced with a challenge of catching up with four to five years of having missed out on learning due to improper upbringing, I discovered in my mature stages in life that literacy skills development was a natural process for me, and there were different ways for me to acquire the languages I have learned beginning at the age of six. It has been demonstrated that hearing children have exposure to language through seeing, hearing and speaking, while my mild to profound hearing loss has called for reliance on visual learning. Figure 1 below is a beautiful illustration of how I see the world, through visual learning and visual hearing.
This inspiring piece that I feel very connected to may be found on the following website: https://www.pinterest.ca/pin/233553930645477154/
(GRAPHIC OF THE EYES HERE)

I would be so very grateful if I could have the graphic remain in the page of my thesis. Of course, I would be delighted to share my thesis once it is ready to be presented. However, you might be interested in reading it. Please do let me know...
Most Sincerely,
Michael
