Some wonder about my wanderings on occasion, but these recent photos sent to me by a friend are testament to the calming beauty available throughout central Texas. These Bluebonnets were photographed on highway 306 between New Braunfels, TX and Purgatory Road. There is much turmoil around us in this old world, and we are reminded how much we've allowed to slip away in our complacency. However, as Lone Wadie, the old Indian character in the movie, "The Outlaw Josey Wales" said, "...endeavor to persevere."
We plan.
We work.
We save.
We dream.
But, life is seldom as it seems.
A germ,
a gene,
a wayward act
can throw perceptions off their track.
A hug,
a kiss,
a tender word
can let us know we’re not alone.
Life is life.
So, on we go
not so sure of what’s in store.
But, fearing less that great unknown.
Enjoying “little” more.
Dennis Price
