KALEIDOSCOPE II
A poetic meditation on how life's experiences shape our perspective, much like the ever-changing patterns within a kaleidoscope.
KALIDESCOPE II
Life is a metaphor.
Look closer, and you will see.
Life has shaped you
like branches of a tree.
This prism I’m walking in is created by me. Like a rubber band stretching, this monkey mind expands. It creates a mental jungle gym with a floor of sand.
Waves of life are both harsh and kind. When I look into this kaleidoscope, there is no time to rewind. I see the decaying design.
Kaleidoscope of turns, shaped from life—or is it shaped from my mind? The interpretation of what lessons to learn: what to beget, what to leave alone.
Kaleidoscope views differ. We marvel at its crystallized maneuvers. Shapes shift as we turn the dial, colors created by interlateral styles.
Your life is a masterpiece. We act like we don’t know. We create our days from experiences. Like a plant, we grow.
Life is beautiful. Look and see.
You hold the viewfinder. Your kaleidoscope reflects the life you lead.
Be magnificent, because you are.
