Yesterday, I had a conversation with my mom centered around focusing on health and solutions rather than the problem. We discussed how far I’ve come with my health in the last 5 years (further than any doctor said I could with my MCS). And my mom mentioned how maybe I could get healthy enough to sub again (substitute teacher). NO WAY subbing wasn’t fun when I was healthy. I said I’d rather teacher kids at the park about nature photography and stuff.
Today at the park, I spoke with a fellow nature lover, Dick about how I had not even had the chance to take a great blue heron photo this entire summer, but I’d love too. He walked off and a heron flew by. I tracked its flight.
I was just leaving but decided to walk in the opposite direction to see if I could get the shot.
I was pleasantly surprised to find two herons. They were quite playful and definitely worth the wait for the shot.
I know some think I’m nuts that, I believe that my “wish” to take these photos resulted in the opportunity to focus the camera on these birds. That this was just a coincidence. And yes it took more than wishing, I had to follow through and take action by walking in the heat in the opposite direction from my car.
To get these shots, I walked out on the dock to the gazebo. Some adults and kids struck up a conversation with me. And asked me about the thing across the lake (the dredger). I showed them on my telephoto lens what it was. And explained to the kids why the dredger needed to dredge the lake. The young lady asked to take a photo with my camera, followed of course with her brother asking for equal time. So yes, I got that wish fulfilled today too. Nature. Photography. And inquisitive kids. What a great day.
Whether you are focusing your camera or your thoughts today, I hope all your happy wishes come true. P.S. The best “miracle” was that none of the five people had any toxic fragrances on.
Life in the City with a Future 
Congratulations! To help further improve my health now that I have a Medicare card I had my first appointment yesterday with a (DO) Dr of Osteopathy that is a neuromusculoskeletal specialist and uses cranial sacral therapy. I already had my 1st consult with an MD/ND/classical homeopath. I’m so grateful to have found holistic medical care and I’ve come so far but am anticipating finding the elevator to ride to the top of the next mountain.
AWESOME- AND I’M WITH YOU I NEVER BELIEVE ANYTHING HAPPENS BY CHANCE!!!!! I’M SO GLAD YOUR HEALTH IS BETTER— AND I’M GLAD YOU WERE THE TEACHER AGAIN TODAY!!!!!! 🙂
I bet you’re a fabulous teacher. Glad you are feeling more in control after five years.
I miss seeing your delightful photographs and hope you are not posting them because you are out enjoying life (or collecting them for a photo book of some sort).
How are you doing? I think of you often!
