A Zipper of Possibilities




This tree intrigued.  From underneath, across the street, and at all angles, it provided questions.

The click of a camera captured an essence of elephant that Dr. Seuss could appreciate.  I felt the texture of its leaves, so alive and ready to explore with me. 


Maple leaves crunched under my feet and sent me to another level of experience as I searched in a holly bush for finches.  


We take everyday items for granted.  Just imagine the creative minds behind them.  Think zipper.  Did Mr. Zipper, consider a solution to keep the wind away more a button could?  Did he happen upon railroad tracks?   Then an "Aha" moment struck?  

The paper clip could have evolved from an orthodontist tired of bending one more wire. He twisted, turned it, and tossed it on his desk.  Then he uncluttered papers instead of straightening teeth.  

Feathers inspired the notion of Velcro. How did the key or safety pin arrive for use?  


Imagine the person who became frustrated with burned fingers and designed the coffee collar. Discomfort has produced an intrigue with problem solving.  

The creativity of the human spirit amazes.  

Permit your senses take you on adventures as you move through the day.  Consider life's conveniences as a result of connections and revelations.

Invent a zipper of possibility.
