Barefoot Inspiration

Inspiration can be caught anywhere from anything.

For instance, this morning I spied my beagle, Elli, lying in the grass. Not that this is out of the ordinary, but it made me wonder what she felt while in the grass. So I took off my shoes and socks and tip-toed across the cold pavement. When my left foot touched the grass, I instantly knew why Elli does what she does.

It was a purely magical feeling!

The grass was warm from the sun and felt like it had been washed in fabric softener. Elli and I laid in the grass for a while, soaking in the Spring sun and enjoying the moment, then we returned inside to tackle the necessities of the day.

Don't be so occupied that inspiration can't take root...and remember that inspiration doesn't always have to be world-changing, it just has to be seized.

"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." -Ralph Waldo Emerson

Seems like people don't do the simple things anymore, or maybe it is age, and getting up off the grass just might be a problem now? Anyway, glad you found out how sweet it is. I remember a baby that would not go into the grass barefoot...years ago. Stuck in my mind. Sometimes I lay on my wooden deck with the cats in the summer. Gives the whole world a different look. I like to wind dry my hair on very windy warm days. People miss out on a lot after growing up.
