Petals in the wind. What a wonderful vision. The “Flowers for Mom” petals float and travel to the most surprising places landing in ways never imagined when the first seeds were planted. Amazing the gifts from Alzheimer's...
Take this moment to pause and revel in the beauty of haiku poems shared in response to a "Flowers for Mom" image. Seek the beauty that abounds and remember that the greatest gift you can give to others this holiday season is your presence.
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then what is experiencing a moment worth? There are simply some things that one must take in for themselves.
Endeavor to thoughtfully care for another living being. By so doing, you will be led to earnestly consider issues facing the world around you. Join nature photographer, Elmore DeMott, on her camera journey to see her art, read her words, and hear her speak.
Returning to the place that inspired "Flowers for Mom," Chautauqua Institution, Elmore DeMott will be sharing her photographs and words to honor and Alzheimer's journey and celebrate nature in addition to beginning the third year of her daily discipline of photographing a flower as she seeks beauty in life.
There is much to say, but for this "Camera Journey" message, I am going to let the images speak. My inspiration comes from flowers and "All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten" by Robert Fulghum.
