finding Metaphors

This weekend was relaxing, yesssss! Lots of walking and shutting the mind off. If you are lucky enough to have a beautiful place to go walking, DO IT! We took it up a notch and went to a nearby botanical garden with a Japanese garden, oh my it was gorgeous. I took lots of photos and as I look at them now, it strikes me how many excellent life metaphors you can find in a garden, especially one as pretty as this. So forgive me if you find my musings silly but really, can you disagree?

Taking time to enjoy others labor of beauty inspires.

Water reflections... look into yourself.

Peaceful Zen, finding balance soothes.

See the sky when looking down.

Be curious.

Crooked paths are more interesting.

Have a goal in the distance.

Sometimes your goals change.



Sometimes goals become lost and hard to find.

Love is watching them go their own way.

And Love is watching them return.

Sometimes that goal you sought is less.

But the view from that success brings a new goal.

And sometimes a full circle brings a whole new perspective.

Okay, that's all. I had too much fun with that. I am inspired to share my pendant here. Have a metaphorically great week.
