Years ago while traipsing around Assisi I came across a little doggie looking a wee bit lost. With his nose to the ground he didn’t seem to notice the signposts that might have helped him along his way…
Directionless in Assisi, Italy
Maybe there’s a lesson for us from this wee doggie today? Sometimes we are too focused on the down stuff. If we look up we might catch life’s signposts and opportunities we may miss if we keep our noses to the ground.
Today let’s be about looking up and moving forward with a little courageous hope toward whatever new things we’re meant to be trying and doing.
“Keep trying to do what is necessary, then what’s possible, and suddenly you’re doing the impossible.” Saint Francis of Assisi
grace, peace & courageous up-looks
Virginia : )
Aw, I hope this wee one found his home — hate to think of a lost pup wandering the streets alone! Keep looking up, Virginia — always good advice (though sometimes it’s more prudent to look where we’re stepping so we won’t stumble into something icky, ha!!)
LoL, Debbie – it does help to occasionally look down for potholes (& piles of ickiness!) I fractured my ankle during a visit to South Africa yrs ago when I missed looking down at a rather large pothole. ooops!! 👀👣🤪👣👀
Ouch — sounds painful!!
