The image is of a four panel comic.
The title for the first two panels is "Young Me".
In panel one we see a young version of Sarah, the protagonist. She says, "I want to achieve great things".
In panel two we zoom in a little on young Sarah's face. She continues, "An astounding career! An amazing house! World peace!"
The title for the last two panels is "Adult Me".
In panel three we see adult Sarah, looking down.
In panel four we zoom out and see she is in front of a basil plant. She simply says "I want to grow a basil plant".

Here's the 'big reveal' in case you couldn't spot the tree-colored bird in the first shot. Looks like an Ent! These "phantoms of the north" live in the boreal forests of the near-arctic. Their exceptional hearing lets them hear a vole quietly crawling under the snow. (📷: Alan Murphy)
From Alan Murphy, a shot of a great grey owl against a tree trunk, and it just totally matches color and pattern of the bark of the pine tree, disappearing in all but silhouette.

On the left the face faces the camera and reveals yellow eyes deeply sunk into a giant facial disk.
