TODAY'S
PHOTO -
unidentified pod in a plant in front of our home.
We have lived in our home in Southeast Florida for the past two
and a half years and last week I noticed something in the front
bedding that I had never seen before. In the midst of a widespread
plant I noticed several
pods, many of which were rich brown in color [click link for
a fuller view].
Of course, I went for my camera and
took several photos, intending to document their progress, waiting
to see what opened up from them in the next few days. And then,
since they are so anonymous-looking, nestled deep within the
leaves, I forgot about them after a day or two. When I went
to check on them today I saw that, evidently, the only thing
that happens is they open up only as full as the one we see
above [and in a
second view], and then they shrivel up and die.
Sam and I chose, as today's featured photo, the particular view
above for its color and variety. For those who like to play
with these photos, there are a few different images to be found
within, including the two eyes that I saw boldly challenging
me when I returned to my computer after a short break.
SELF-REFLECTING QUERIES -
What is challenging you right now? Are there places where you
might not be seeing things that are right in front of you? Might
there be one thing, or more, that could impart growth and expansion
for you before it shrivels up and dies?
