- Enos A. Mills

The Very Stuff That Discovery Is Made Of

Does anyone see the "partial" heart in the tree bark?

Actually - as I look at this even more - I see TWO partial hearts :) 

What seems mundane and trivial is the very stuff that discovery is made of. The only difference is our perspective, our readiness to put the pieces together in an entirely different way and to see patterns where only shadows appeared just a moment before.

  ~ Edward B. Lindaman

I thought he was a cutie - but I also 
LOVE the bark on this tree!

the layers that confine me

Hoping I find comfort

in what is beneath
