TODAY'S
PHOTO -
a photo drawing of legs and shoes of 5 Brownie
Girl Scouts
Given that the past two Picture of Ponder issues
featured hats - Issues
177 and 178,
"shoes" as a next subject flashed through
my mind. Not having any shoes that have visually
caught my attention recently, I thought about this
photo that I took a few years ago.
In the absence of the photo
itself, I offer you the photo/drawing** that I did
at the time. I liked the fun of it then and I still
smile as I look at the picture. While reflecting,
I am also reminded of a drawing I did many years
ago, when women sat under big dryers in their beauty
salons. I sat under mine, one day, and drew the
dryers and the feet and legs.
As I continue writing, I also remember that there
are a few sets of photos I did, not long ago, of
legs and shod feet of photographers as they were
poised for taking photos at Wakodahatchee Wetlands.
I recall being attracted by the angle of one person's
foot, an expression of anticipation, I thought.
I invite you, for the fun of it, to look at legs,
below the knees, shoes and feet in the next day
or two.
**Those of you who are new subscribers and
are not familiar with my unique photo/drawing style,
can see it on NATURE'S
PLAYGROUND.
SELF-REFLECTING QUERIES -
What comes up for you as you look at legs, feet
and shoes? Do you make decisions about the person
based on the condition of the shoes? the types of
shoes? the position of their feet?
Does what they seem to be doing have an impact on
your perceptions? I have no answers yet for these
questions. As soon as I finish, I'm going to go
outside and look at the feet of men doing some work
here.
What I do want to acknowledge, as I finish today,
is my own feet and all that they so powerfully provide
for me. They support the full weight of my body.
They take me places, especially on all the walks
I love and share with you. They provide safe passage
in the cars I drive.
In addition, from the little I know about reflexology,
the foot has reflex points which connect to different
areas and organs in the body. Healing to any troubled
body part can be generated through these points.
So to my feet and all that they provide for me,
Thank You.
