Change the World: Are You Coming?

No Explosives Needed

On the road to our dream destination,

Starbucker


we’re bound to find a few detours and breathing blockades

Bulldog-in-your-face


who seem dead-set on bringing us down.

It’s good to know that when someone knocks us over

beached-sunflower


or tries to set a match to our plans,

one burning match


that we can pick ourselves up and kick a little water to put out the flame.

splash Kick that flame


Because the sky and the water belong to everyone

heart on the water


and the sun doesn’t belong just to me

So, are you coming along for the ride of your life?

We’re getting out our crayons.

We’ve got all of the creativity we need.

Geek Cigar Lady


We know what beautiful looks like — what to make and what to keep.

dancers — waterfall


We’re going to change the world.

Earth from space


Wait and see.

    Sorry I missed you. I was off to see a client. I’ve started coloring already. I bet you have too. :)

Saw them trotting up to the barn and put on the goretex in a flash and went out… the weather was gorgeous (35 and still rainy)… it was like my world “changed just like that”…

    Thank you for sharing your experience! I feel like I’m right there with you when you do. :)

    Hi Sia,
    At the bottom of the road in that first pix is a little mining town. (I kept the pix small so that his post wouldn’t be a bandwidth hog. :) )

    Yeah, that lady in New Orleans with the cigar is one of my all-time favorite photos!
