Road Trip Stop 2: Flensburg, Germany Less birds, m Road Trip Stop 2: Flensburg, Germany
Less birds, more shoes. 
Lots of shoes strung along several lines in Flensburg on the road leading to Nordtor. Must not relate to drug dealing gang territories here ;) 
Good reminder that not all knowledge and conventions apply the same way across time and space.

I've stopped posting people or personal photos on social media years ago. And I'm certainly not one to post selfies... until this week. 

At the beginning of my Europe trip, I knew something needed to change in my work, volunteering, and creative life - at least a re-balancing and shift of focus. I decided to spend this time keeping my senses open to all forms of inspiration, guideposts, and visions of self - in hopes answers would float to the surface. 

The most obvious things I see... 
Something that might hold back many of us: a distorted and unloved vision of ourselves. Something that might inspire many of us: birds. 

In these photos, I see a lot of what I wrestle with, what holds me back, and what inspires me, keeps me going. The answers aren't all there - but they're floating around. 

The artist of the "Finding Dodo" sculptures is Liu Ruowang. 
The woman with her masks is by Vasil Berelas @vasil_berela

Road Trip! And just like the geese, I'm planning Road Trip! 
And just like the geese, I'm planning on lots of loud sing-a-longs - and maybe even some honking!

Even here in Northern Germany it's supposed to get up to 100F / 38C over the next 2 days. What is this? Florida? Pfffff. Naturally, I'm about to head even further north...
