I read somewhere that 5 minutes just looking at an object such as a flower or even a single leaf was beneficial. So, I thought I would give it a try, and this little cacti garden in a pot was sitting right there.
Yes it was intriguing, 3 different little cacti all with one thing in common -the prickles. If I had more than 5 minutes I would have been tempted to take a pencil and draw each one. A botanical illustrator spends a lot of time studying a subject carefully, measuring, making colour notes, thumb nail sketches … getting the hairs on the hairy one might present a prickly challenge, but I only gave it 5 minutes and at the end of my time, concluded that most people have prickles, we all need handling with care. Better still handling with prayer. I also concluding that I am fast becoming like the white haired one!
Oh dear! I need handling with prayer!
Natural therapy! π
πI think that is what I need less paperwork more sunshine.
LoL π That’s right. We have to love the thorns and pricks alike. Nice shot, Jean!
I like your phrase, handling with prayer. We fool ourselves if we think that we’re not in need of it.
