WE PASSED THIS INCREDIBLE YARD ON THE WAY OUT OF TOWN ON SUNDAY. IT WAS THE BLAST OF COLOUR IN THE DESERT THAT CAUGHT MY EYE.
UPON CLOSER INSPECTION IT WAS CLEAR THAT THE PROPRIETOR WANTED TO PROMOTE LOVE , LAUGHTER AND ART ! I DID LAUGH AT ALL THE CRAZY VIGNETTES SET UP IN EVERY PATCH OF WHAT WAS ONCE PERHAPS A LAWN.
THERE WERE BABY DOLLS LEANING ON ONE ANOTHER , A PINK TELEVISION SET , PLASTIC ‘WISEMEN’ INTERSPERSED WITH PLANTS AND PLACARDS.
AND EVEN WITH THE OWNERS’ PROMOTION OF PEACE THERE WAS A POLITICAL STATEMENT OR TWO. HA HA.
I TRY NOT TO LOOK AT THE POLITICAL NEWS IN THE STATES BECAUSE I FIND IT DISTURBING BUT I ONLY HAVE TO READ OUR CANADIAN PAPERS ABOUT OUR POLITICIANS TO READ NEWS JUST AS CRAZY IN MANY WAYS. WE SEEM TO BE LIVING IN A TIME OF VOLATILE ANGER …. THE PEOPLE MAD AT THEIR POLITICIANS, THE POLITICAL LEADERS ACTING LIKE DICTATORS, AND NEIGHBOURS MAKING MORE EYE CONTACT WITH THEIR PHONES THAN WITH EACH OTHER.
TODAY LET US MAKE A TINY EFFORT TO BE KIND. LET’S LOOK UP AND SMILE AT SOMEONE. LET’S DO AN ACT OF KINDNESS. LET’S CHANNEL PEACE TODAY IN THE WAY WE LIVE….
