Wandering wednesday~a photo challenge

Gardenmama has invited us all, yet again, on a journey of introspection.
Where do our feet take us, and what stories do they tell...
And since this is presented by Gardenmama why not pick up where she left off, by the clothesline, only this time looking down..

"Here I stand, as the children play close by, I choose each piece of clothing carefully, and hang them  mindfully in an eye pleasing manner, it is a task during which I am rarely disturbed, and therefore relish deeply in the moment"
"Here I stand, in my most favorite way, bare feet planted solidly in the dark warm earth, following the calls of a child urging me to share her bliss, her bliss over a nest she herself has made, made of greens, and in which lives a little bird, a bird that is her friend"
"Here I stand, watching as she runs away, new games are calling"
"Here I stand, watching the beauty and abundance of this natural world, and while the food at my feet is green, by my eyes it is bright red and ever plentiful. The children happily gather handfuls of the ripe goodness, to fill their mouths, and I rejoice at their love of freshness"
"Here I stand, well almost, here I hang, resting my tired feet, letting my body enjoy the swinging sensation of a really high swing, the air in my hair, the joy of being free with my children playing at my feet, laughing, it is summer, life it good, there is plenty to be grateful for" 
~Do stop by  Gardenmama, and see what everyone else has come up with~
~may your day be inspired~
