Nudging into creativity today, I ran in a pattering of rain. Puddles and reflections encouraged ways to view nature upside down. What fun to notice leaves relaxed in their morning spa.
Spokes of spider webs draped from the bridge railing. Dappled with beads of dew, they refracted rain from the droplets. Fir trees stood on their heads as squirrels twisted down oak trees in search of breakfast. In the ponds, ducks ventured upside down to feed beneath the surface, tails wriggling in the breeze. Even the herons appeared to search for a reversal.
When we take the opportunity to break from the ordinary and move out of a mind set, it clicks our imagination into a fresh gear. Ideas and ways to view our life's challenges appear from the inside out with a variety of connections.
Notice the leaves in communal hugs on a park bench. What a better world we'd have if everyone shared a morning upside down and inside out.
Creative Write: Approach the day upside down. What do you have hiding inside that wants to come out. Write about it!
