Logic or Imagination?

A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour!

So, how often in LIFE do you take the scenic route?

Logic will take you from A to B.  Imagination will get you anywhere ~ Albert Einstein

This week as one of MANY LIFE'S simple pleasures, I'm exploring all things EARTH.

It was EARTH DAY earlier this week, (celebration of a day? a week? a month?) it was created to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's natural environment. 

Just out my front door I can be inspired by Mother Nature's beauty.  Although I'm cheating a bit... this is just outside my front door, but it is a picture from last year at this time, actually a month earlier.... March 26, 2012.... we had an unusually gorgeous few weeks of spring that came early to the mid West.

What path do you take?  Have you enjoyed the scenery? Do you ever take the long way?

Not all those who wander are lost. 

 

I'm excited to share next week something about where this path has taken us.  It's a little bit of a tease to bring you back here to see what's ahead for Week # 18.

There is so much to enjoy when you take the scenic route, it touches all of your senses.  When you hear the trees swaying and knocking in the wind and the birds chirping with happiness, and you smell the fresh dirt and grass after a spring shower, and you see flowers budding up through the soil, and you feel a gentle breeze blow through your hair and the warmth of the sunshine on your face... and maybe to stretch it a bit... when you have a great meal after taking an invigorating walk... taking the scenic route can be a very special designated road.

Week # 17 - LIFE'S simple pleasures - all things EARTH

As we exit the speeding highway and opt for the slower, scenic route, we find richness to LIFE & we wonder how we missed it all this time. ~ Christina G. Hibbert

 

Go ahead, I dare you to get lost and enjoy the scenery!
