“Perhaps this very instant is your time.” ―Louise Bogan (Literary Granny 2013)
I didn’t particularly feel like sitting at my desk to write this morning. I have somersaulted into the post-traveling blues, my dogs are barking as if the loch ness monster flew over from Scotland and took up residence in our street and there are two PG & E staffers investigating the work that was done on our street this week after the explosion that caused our block to be evacuated as I was flying back to the West Coast on Monday.
This is not the ideal writing environment and I was not in a particularly favorable frame of mind.
Beth just let a shouting barkety bark escape her lips as if on cue.
If I wasn’t involved in a blog challenge right now I probably would have retreated onto the nearest bed and slept the day away, but because I am involved in a blog challenge, I stayed at the keyboard.
I looked at an image: a photo I took and then the same photo, edited.
That simple, five minute edit imbued the scene with an entirely different meaning.
Here: look –
Image Number One - Unedited. Look at it, closely and carefully.
Image #2 - What comes up for you when you look at the roots now. Has anything changed?
What does the first image say to you?
What does the second image say to you?
How does this relate back to your day today?
Tomorrow – I will answer those questions here – I would love to know if you are joining me in this thought process. Comments, participation, waves to me as I drive down the street: each and all of these simple things make me happy.
This post is Number 16 of 30 and was inspired by the Ultimate Blog Challenge. Throughout the month I will be posting writing and creativity tips especially to make your writing (and your writing experience!) better.
I'm so glad you are here!
