TODAY'S PHOTO
-
a large mushroom on a lawn after heavy rains.
This mushroom has been waiting for a week and a half to come
into your home or office. On a neighborhood walk after some
heavy rains, I spotted 4 large mushrooms, about 6 inches in
diameter, on one of the lawns. A couple of them, aside from
their size, were quite ordinary. This one really pulled me into
it.
My first observation is the heart shape of the mushroom from
this angle. There are also many other imaginative interpretations
that I can bring to it and I will leave that up to you.
OK, so one more, I'll put out there. There is a girl's profile
face in there. She has a full pony tail. Sam is the one who
saw the face only I think we are seeing two different ones.
His is an outside profile; mine is inside.
SELF-REFLECTING QUERIES -
Relative to my last statement - What happens when you and another
person are seeing two different things in the same set of circumstances?
Thoughts evolving from the mushroom photo/experience - To what
kinds of things might you look forward after a heavy rain, so-to-speak,
or rough period?
Though in actuality the above mushroom might be poisonous, or
not, I see it for it's shape and texture and for the illusion
of softness and protection.
Where are the "soft and protected" areas in your life?

of her father, done by Sheila, provided a major breakthrough

his loss, so that she can now enjoy photos of him.

an audio for Sheila, she made it really easy for me. She called
me and set up a 3 way call so I could record how wonderful I
think her ezine is and her artwork. I am sure she will do the
same for you. And she didn't even mind the blooper I made about
her art site name. (LOL)."
