A Little Whimsey


This little guy sits on the ledge above my waterfall. I have to smile every time I see him. He looks all set to jump into the stream and the frog looks like he is saying, "you want me to do what??
My little gnome reminds me to take time to play and to not take myself too seriously. There are days when the workaholic in me needs those reminders. There always seems to be something that needs to be done or someone who wants something.
Do you ever wish you could clone yourself? Some days I do. Then one of me could be off playing all the time and the other could be working. But, knowing me.......they would probably both end up working full time.
So... given I can't clone myself. I choose to take some time everyday to just walk around my gardens or just sit and listen to the waterfall. I find the sound on a waterfall to be so relaxing.... almost hypnotic. I know that there will always be things that are left undone, but the most important will get done and the rest can wait. I have to focus on what is important to me and my family... the rest can be delegated or left undone.
