The Wonder Project Day 4: Spin

By In The Wonder Project
Spinning Free

This is the view from our tree swing in the woods when I let go, dogs chasing, me giggling, the wind in my hair. I find my childlike heart and everything feels upside down, and yet makes sense all at the same time. My mind lets go and I forget what needs to be done. I am just there, spinning like a little girl.

Oh the wonder of finding childhood again!   The world becomes a watercolor palette, with colors mixing and mingling into beauty. In my quest for wonder, for the face of God, I cannot forget to laugh and dance.

And spin free.

“The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives.” ~ Albert Einstein

 

Psalm 126:1,2 ~”When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dreamed. Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy.”

    I LOVE this series. The first picture posted actually made me a tad motion-sick, so you know you achieved the desired effect! I hope we never lose the child-like wonder expressed in this post! I am so excited you are doing this project!

    I am one of your biggest fans! Love these pictures! I can vision me twisting the swing around and around and around and then letting go! I know it was a bit challenging to get the camera to take these awesome pictures while you are going in circles! So good Maryanne! Love you!
