Flamingos take on their rosy coloring from the pigment in the shrimp that they eat, holding in their pink feathers the underwater world that sustains them.
What will you take in today that can give a bit of rosy glow to your life?
Father’s Day
Happy Father’s Day! Washington, Adams and Jefferson are considered fathers of the United States of America. Einstein is considered the father of modern physics. Fathers create and shepherd and promote a wide variety of things in addition to children.
What are you (regardless of your gender) the father of?
Prickly
Thistles protect themselves with an array of spiny thorns, and there are few animals that would dare to try to eat a thistle. But many birds find thistle seed irresistible, and an opened thistle flower is well worth the prickling on the toes.
What have you braved for the chance to be part of something creative and/or delicious?
King of Corners
“Here. Where I am anonymous and alone in a white room with no history and no parading. So I can make something unknown in the shape of this room. Where I am King of Corners. ”
― Michael Ondaatje
How have you re-made yourself during a time of emptiness?
In the Wind
We are, all of us, shaped by our environment. Like the tree that leans to the side from growing in the persistent wind, each of us incorporates the world which surrounds us into the shape of our lives.
How is your environment shaping your life?
