How wonderful that you picked a quote from Leo! When the "IF" word was clutter, I was trying to look up the story about the time he spread a huge bag of leaves all over the airpleane he was travelling on! It was such a wonderful story about how people get hung up on those who don't rake their leaves and leave their lawns such a mess. He saw the beauty in those fallen leaves, as do we. I did my own painted version of clutter from that memory of him. Happy Monday! Lovely photo and sentiment.XX
It's so difficult to run against the wind, most people prefer to bend like grass. It is so much more comfortable. I would like to be wise enough to do so....
I enjoy the outdoors, where I gather much of my creative inspiration. I find it necessary to spend time in nature, for balance and sanity. Get Zapped is where I post my photos accompanied by quotes I find intriguing. Get Zen is for sharing my Illustrations, design work, poetry, and other creative outlets. Thanks for stopping by.

Yes I so agree! People think I'm nuts but they don't understand where happiness and beauty is found - excellent quote.

Me too! The quote goes perfectly with the picture.
playing with leaves... what a nice pastime!
Evocative picture...

Sometimes, when I'm in the park and I notice a leaf falling from a tree, I'll try to catch it before it hits the ground.
