For some people, Light is warning…for others warming. Exposure or encouragement. There is no safety in shadows, if safety is life’s primary issue. Nothing wrong with shadows, of course. They add texture to life. But if refusal or reluctance is the landlord, the rent is too high.
Sometimes the way is narrow and you can’t see what’s on the other side. In those times, look for the light, even the glimmer. Take courage. Follow your heart. Sometimes the uncharted way leads to something extraordinary.
My friend walked right past this creature and didn’t see it. Granted, it is quite small, enlarged here for the photograph. And when I called him back to look, he said: “Just another bug.” Really? Later, when I showed him this picture, he changed his mind: “Look at that! It’s a work of art.”
Sometimes, when something is too little, or too common, too weird, too different, too challenging…it might be worth taking a closer look. What if you found a “work of art” upon closer, deeper examination? Be worth the time and effort. Absolutely.
