Detour in life of fluctuating moments
Calling one to bend or stagnate
Divergent thinking flowing
Deviation from the norm
Recreating oneself
Salvaging what is treasured
Walking alone, but never alone
Finding a new way
To be in the world
Time to Bend

I always admire your efficiency of words, Olga. This is well written. How often has life invited us to deviate from our plans?

Thanks, V.J. Invited to deviate can be welcoming, but forced to deviate can be challenging and overwhelming. I’ve felt both calls.

Yes, I have too, Olga – all part of character development, in retrospect.

Unusual realism in your photograph, Olga. =)
But then, there’s the sky. Wonderful.
And especially lovely:
“Recreating oneself
Salvaging what is treasured
Walking alone, but never alone
Finding a new way
To be in the world”
