“Can’t see the forest for the trees…”

In life this can lead us when we understand what this means.

On our Sunday tour, I suddenly spotted the cows in the trees. As we stopped and allowed ourselves to look around, we suddenly saw so many, peeking in and out from all areas. Did you see it?

We had actually turned around, as we were driving down the road, I spotted an incredible expansive garden and asked him to turn around, it was when we turned around, when we spotted them.

Sometimes in life we need these reminders, we can focus sometimes on the small things, that may feel are insurmountable, yet in the big picture it may not be.

My reminder that day, honor my heart and soul, if I see something I want to photograph, its not a big issue or deal to stop or turn around.
