Pinnacle Vista

If we look at the world with a love of life, the world will reveal its beauty to us.- Ikeda

Inspiration can come from a brilliant sunrise over the ocean,  or meditation on the red rocks of Sedona. Some enjoy following motivational blogs and podcasts.

And some emulate the creative spirit of others.

It is different for all of us. 

And sometimes inspiration comes in the most unlikely places.

Look again. 

There is a cross on Pinnacle Peak at this appropriate intersection.  I don’t know the story and keep thinking I should do the research.  Instead, I appreciate its presence and look for it everyday.  I do know there is no trail on Pinnacle Peak and sometimes the cross falls down. Ironically enough, within a day the cross is, once again, standing erect.   I know this because I can see it from my kitchen window too.  

I love my morning walks and I smiled, thinking, after eight years I am just noticing the perfectly placed street signs at the corner.

Sometimes inspiration is right in front of us. Isn’t it?

Usually I am on a mission to be back by 8AM. The brutal heat of our Arizona summer inspires that pace.  Anyway,  I do enjoy the walks, I wave to my neighbors at a distance, I can hear the hummingbirds wake up, and I can pretend that one of these days I might see a fairy on the everblooming fairy duster.

In another hour, the cars will distract us from our reflections, and Mother Nature will turn up that heat.  That’s ok.

Today, I am inspired by…tomorrow.
