Connect dots that don’t exist yet, by adding dots.

A new idea is called for.

Start a blank page and put something there.

From that, your new idea will grow, just as a seed which knows nothing of the plant it will become, still achieves that fine end result.

Sparkling laughter and fruit juice.

The bear growled, the lion roared, the rocket soared.

A postman paused….wrong adress.

Someone shouted and the news went to press.

I see fit to shake my ear and rattle my toe.

Someone, has come to see the show.

When you need to make a decision, to take action, when nobody else is aware of your plans, try to be considerate, but if need be, stand and deliver whatever it takes.

Not every moment is a beauty contest. But decisiveness is ultimately, beautiful.

Enjoy the fireworks as well as the millpond.

A slow pavement, cooled.

Footsteps splashing in puddles, where the aim was bad.

Cars crawling carefully between lampposts.

A dog, looking bewildered sipped from a pool of fresh rain.

Lights reflected as sparkling distortions.

An umbrella inverted in a gust of wind, becoming a giant empty ice cream cone.

Singing and dancing…in the rain.

Dawn sets the pace unless you do.

Treat sunrise as a cue to start paying attention to the beautiful, those who dance and make music.

Every day has moments that alert you to the new ideas they offer, if you listen carefully, look with wide eyes and inhale deeply.

Take a nap.
