A new quote for thought
I came across this quote yesterday while at the Museum of Science in Boston which I found interesting:
“It should not be hard for you to stop sometimes and look into the stains of walls, or ashes of fire, or clouds, or mud or like place in which. . . you may find really marvelous ideas” – Leonardo DaVinci
Debbi,
What do you think this quote means? To me, it speaks about stopping routine activities to reflect and tap into one’s imagination.

Yes, Holly, I would agree. Also, about the ability to find inspiration in the small details and/or remains of the day. I’m not really sure I do that (at least I don’t usually look at mud and ashes and the like for ideas!), but I like the quote and am always open to looking more at nature to find inspiration.
