Roots and wings
It was a sweltering hot afternoon when I encountered this pond in the midst of the Arizona desert.
What a delight, this surprise of the water where there shouldn’t be any. I valued the clarity of the mirrored reflection in the water where I received the gift of two mountain views, one pointing toward the heavens, the other diving into the watery depths.
Our lives and dreams present such a dichotomy to us. If we only pay attention, there are always two sides to every story–whether we hear or in this case, see, it.
Good ideas need landing gear as well as wings.
