Expand Your Thoughts

We sometimes set our dreams on perches so lofty that no matter how much we stretch we cannot touch them.
The dreams will remain, we just have to grow as a person until we can reach that high.

They are tall trees for tall dreams. The older you get the shorter your dreams as time is not enough to grow much more.

An unusual view of a twisty, expansive tree looking up into the sun. Nice vision to see and hold.

Beautiful thought! Beautiful flower, Judy!

Yes, lofty dreams are good to have. I do stretch and reach as high as I can, and sometimes I realize that even in the reaching I am making progress, even if it's not obvious. Thanks for the reminder.

Everything about this is completely beautiful.

When I am Rich said...

I'm stretching as tall as I can!
(I thought it was a myth that you get shorter as you get older but I'm sure I'm shrinking - or everyone else around me is growing!)
Ah well, onwards and upwards!
Love the tree photo!

So true. Sometimes we are just not ready for what we are reaching for and we have to do more living before we are.
Wonderful post and thank you for sharing.

The photo stretches our mind to encompass the quote. Great choice and loved the flower.

Ratty said...

And when our dreams are so lofty, the way to reach them is to build a ladder so we can get to those dreams, with every step being closer than the last.

TC said...

Great thing to remember, maybe our dreams are attainable in time. Thanks Judy, I like the tree, I'm partial to trees.

Pat said...

I love the tree shot - I've forever taking shots like that. The flower photo is nice, too.

Great quote - now if only I can stop growing sideways instead of upward!

Rose said...

Love that view of the trees with the glympse of the sun.

I love looking up into the leaves of trees to the sky beyond. And now you present a lofty thought to think.
