“Life is a spell so exquisite that everything conspires to break it” – Emily Dickinson

Life is a Journey…

The Tree-Lined Drive

Life is a journey and it may be:

A walk down a tree-lined drive, or an uphill ride,

A run through a field of grain, or a dance, cheek to cheek, in the rain,

A slide down a rugged mountain side, or a struggle with pain, when there is no gain,

A fight that seems to put out the light, a time, hand-in-hand, listening to our favorite band,

A tour of miles that brings many smiles, no matter the route, or the times we pout,

We’ll experience loss, we’ll experience grief, we’ll be each others comfort and relief,

We’ll use our faith to work through any plight, we’ll cherish our love through all types of weather,

Life is a journey, let’s make it together.

Our thoughts shape our lives….

“Be careful how you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts.” (Proverbs 4:23)

If only all thoughts could be as beautiful as this butterfly on the lavender……

The Delay III

Another image from my time spent in the airport last Friday.

People watching has to be the best free entertainment in the world.  It is captivating and the hours pass by so quickly when there are people to observe.  This image may not be the best technically, but I love it.  It speaks volumes and images that tell stories are, to me, the best.  I had my shutter speed set to 60 and was actually focusing on the man looking at magazines when the others quickly popped into the frame.  The result – significant motion blur.  Does it bother me?  Not all.  To me it defines what air travel is – fast paced and often rushed, at least in my world.
