Inspirational Morning Walk

When we were at Patagonia Lake State Park, we took a walk with Max one morning, and I saw so many lovely, peaceful sights, and one incredible bridge!  I had to capture some of them and convert them to paintings.  I then searched for quotes that seemed to reflect a meaning one could take from each of them.

I think this is a very thoughtful idea.  I do find that if I have a good state of mind on a given day, things just naturally seem to “go my way” – no long lines at the store, I can find what I’m looking for right away, etc.  When I am in a negative state of mind, needless to say, I find things just don’t go my way…..or maybe it’s my perspective coloring things?

Isn’t this the truth?  We all tend to get caught up in the latest news, the latest scandal, and it tends to color how we view the world.  We then find ourselves thinking that things are just not going well all over the world.  But, nature is a constant, and it is sometimes the most real thing out there.  

I love this quote!  It’s so true.  Without making mistakes, it’s much, much harder to learn.  And, learning from our mistakes is a valuable learning tool.  I really feel sorry for those who are afraid of making mistakes.  I can’t help but wonder how much they are missing out on in life.  After all, we’re not born experts at everything!

Enjoy!
