August Six Word Photo Story Challenge: “Travel & Transport”
Okay, once more around the block.
12,430 lifetime miles so far. Its been a daily adventure for the two of us. I’m talking about me and my walking stick.
So many experiences. So many people. So many insects, critters, and trees. All this and more within the 1.5 mile trek called Cherry Creek; my neighborhood.
I’ve walked this path over 8000 times, but with the first step of every new day, I carry along with me the anticipation of a new discovery. I’m never disappointed.
You only need the desire and a little focus, without the distraction of earbud music streaming into your consciousness, to see the world of magic we call home.
I recall the story of the man who was poor of spirit and wealth. He looked out on the land that surrounded his house and saw nothing of worth. He saw nothing to inspire him.
The man sold his home, took off to see the world, and find his fortune. He found neither, but the woman who bought his old home found plenty. She was a painter, and when she looked upon her landscape she saw inspiration and great wealth: literally.
