Post #14 – where following your instinct is discussed
Today was dark, grey, cold, and wet – a great day to stay inside and build Lego models, read books or watch movies… I didn’t quite get to manage those things but got some chores done and tinkered with some WordPress template themes.
But, back to the topic – yesterday evening gave some indication as to what the weather might be today. I was watching bunches of clouds gather and swirl around on my way home and thought they looked amazing. The sun was going down and the lighting of the sky was becoming quite dramatic. I couldn’t really stop on the way and thought it might be enough to just enjoy the sight, but kept thinking that I’d like to take some photos. But no I thought, best get home…
My heart though, was telling me that I’d missed photo opportunities in the past and it would be easy to find a vantage point and take some photos. So, after some to-ing and fro-ing with myself, I did take that road less travelled and was able to watch a roiling sky for twenty minutes and capture some lovely images. It was totally worth taking the diversion and while I didn’t get rained on, actually wouldn’t have minded if I got wet. The shapes of the clouds, their changing colours and hues, and the sunset made for an enjoyable transition from work to home.
So, when you feel that instinct encourage you to do something that you weren’t intending to, don’t over analyse it – go with the flow and see what happens. I actually can’t recall a time when I’ve regretted doing it. can you?
Gathering storm…
I didn’t expect our Word of the Day to be: ‘zedonk’, which is a product of cross-species breeding…
