Our aspirations are like trees, yearning to grow high and tall. But when the temperature rises, they can catch fire…
We can stand and watch. Or we can find the peaceful lake of our dreams, deep within ourselves, reflecting the glory of the sky above.
And – save the wood!

My first impression of this wonderful picture & scene was this: “Very hard to find inspiration sitting on your chair at home.” Getting out there heals the mind/soul and many times leads one to inspiring thoughts.

Yes, dear Amanda, indeed so!
Sometimes in the heat of chasing that, which we want to achieve, we actually burn down the woods of our aspirations. And then we have to find a place and time where we can feel the peace inside of ourselves – where the lake of our true dreams rests – and restore what we may…
May you have a peaceful and wonderful weekend, my friend 🙂

You have a wonderfully lyrical blogger voice, Elena. Your words are a reminder for many of us living in cities. Getting outside the cities and walking in natural surroundings can be so helpful. Enjoy your weekend.

So true! I have experienced this quite often. When you caught by your aspirations and too many competing desires. The solution is to let go some of them and watch what happens. Thank you for sharing this wise thought with us!
