Going Macro






As we walk along the paths of life we should take notice of the little events that go unnoticed. This snail without a trail is an example. As I walked about the flowers, it amazed me that the snail got to the top of the hydrangea. What a feat that must have been. No signs of a snail trail to be seen. He was just there…at the top. I can imagine nothing less than a fairy intervention. Maybe the fireflies lit the path in pre-dawn. For at morning’s light, he was there.

It’s not unlike Horton Hears a Who. Just a speck of dust on top of fluff and a new adventure begins. We must be still and observe the layers of life about us. As we hurry our days, we can actually stir up the other worlds about us. Take it slow. Grab your cup of morning nectar and sit and observe the little friends about the garden. It’s what summer’s for. They go about at their own pace, seldom disturbing our lives. A little acknowledgement will help them along.

Symbiosis.

Don’t forget to grab your camera. Going macro has great rewards. A new perspective is always guaranteed.
