I've been holding on to some burdens. Today I released them to the wind.
I took this image today while at an art festival. A little girl lost her balloon and cried out as it floated away - gone. But to me it represented something different... burdens (all those things/thoughts bringing me down) – released to the wind... gone. The day was glorious - the first good sunny day in quite a while and I soaked up every bit of sunshine I could. While I was sitting there in the sun enjoying the music and watching people, I read some of the comments on my last post. Your words, your love, touched me... deeply. The fact that you took time out of your day to make mine better, means more to me than you know. Thank you so very much.
“Let your mind start a journey thru a strange new world. Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before. Let your soul take you where you long to be...Close your eyes let your spirit start to soar, and you'll live as you've never lived before.” - Erich Fromm

That quote is so powerful. Yay to you releasing those burdens!!!
you took a beauty filled photo...because you are...
It's good to let go. I hope you are well.
gorgeous picture, beautiful post!
I am always thankful for you. Your quiet thoughts and insight. I'm glad that you could release some of this today. I hope you enjoy this gorgeous weather this week.
I'm thinking of you, sweet friend. I love you.
Casting our care ... freedom indeed ... thank you so much for visiting!
I used to visualize my problems/burdens as balloons and would watch them float away in my head, releasing them to the wind as you have done. A perfect way to let them go.

I love this photograph and I love how you've chosen to view the balloon floating away...not as loss, but as burdens rising and lifting away.
While your name isn't mentioned, I checked where you are from and I believe you are my "jewel" through Se'Lah and sent me the beautiful autumn card...which I love. I'm framing it to hang in my studio. The Oliver Wendell Holmes message inside is perfect. I'm so glad the card arrived today -- a day when I very much needed to read this message. Thank you so much for adding the beauty and the joy to my day. I'm glad I've discovered your blog and your work!
It's very nice shot.
what a wonderful photo. it makes me happy.
You've the best images. Sometimes the words are extras, condiments.
