Gentleness Can Do what Force Can Not

 


Gentleness can do what force can not.

Aesop


If you try to force the knots 

at the center of the Lotus

the knots tighten.



JUST LET GO




Loosen the knots gradually and gently.




Gently and gracefully let go.

Gentleness can do what force can not.

Lotus Blossom or Water Lily?

For those who know a water lily is not the same as
a lotus blossom, I confess, the plant here is a water lily.
But the spirits of the lake told me it was okay to allow
the water lily to fill in for the lotus blossom as 
the lotus blossom doesn't take itself too seriously.

I am honored to add another photographer
to my list of talented artists that allow me to 
scribble over their photos. Last week Jim Chamberlain 
reached out to me and gifted me access to all of his photos 
and generously gave me permission to create 
art over his treasure trove of images. 

At first I sat quivering with excitement, unable to choose which 
photos to play with first. Then the energy and spirits 
in his images began to speak to my creative spirits 
to share the secrets found in nature if only we listen.
This is the first in too many to count I have to work with.

I'm still quivering with excitement and delight!
