Exploring the senses...sight

This was easy and obvious, and yet not.

I enjoyed the interview with Lynette Endicott over at Second Cup. http://www.junesecondcup.blogspot.com/2012/05/welcome-lynnette-endicott-fellow-writer.html

First there's the blog. The teapot is charming and inviting, so is the burning candle. In yoga, we were instructed, during sponge, to focus on a flickering candle at the front of our forehead. It helped to center and keep the mind from wandering.

Then in the excerpt provided, the grandmother tells the heroine, Paige, she expects changes in the home Paige now owns, and is looking forward to seeing the real Paige revealed. I love that. How often do we find ourselves stuck in a particular pattern because it's habit? Stifling us from revealing our true selves? Think I need to try doing some new things...

Over at Tina Pinson's Write Where I Want to Be she shares "Lessons from a Beetle." http://tinapinson.blogspot.com/2012/05/lessons-from-beetle.html She writes it so well, I can see the beetle. It dovetails beautifully into God's love for us. Well done.

I mentioned Beth Trissel, yesterday, and she frequently has eye-vacation posts. Today, the Cuffe Sisters talk about bluets. http://cuffesisters.com/2012/off-the-cuffe/bluets/ Yes, I love flowers. I find them visually pleasing, Tantalizing scents and textures.

Animals, plants, minerals, water, air, fire, all create pictures in our minds with a single word.

Can you see this quote?

The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug. Mark Twain
