This is my submission for Tina’s Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #28: Curves.
“How are you dealing with life’s little curveballs?” Tina asked.
A lot of time, I simply step aside; let the ball pass me. Sometimes, I learn the lesson and move on. Sometimes, I ask (beg?) higher beings to help. All of the time, while dealing with life’s little curveballs, I would repeat to myself: “I love you no matter what!” 😉
Thanks, Tina.
Thank you for visiting my blog.
please visit mine too. 🙂

Thank you, Tina.
I should spend more time working on writing this post. The theme brought back a lot of interesting memories, and among them I saw some patterns. At first, I was going to write about that (because it fascinated me), but after writing a couple of paragraphs, I had a feeling that it was too mush personal stories, so I had to find a different approach. I don’t think I had found the best approach… oh well… Great theme, Tina.
Have a wonderful day.

Thank you, Manja. I like photo challenges. It gives me a reason to play. I play all the time, but usually without a specific reason 😉
Have a wonderful day. (Just realized I had to follow you again. I was going to ask you what happened and then remembered that you did say something about following when you started a new blog…)

Thank you, Lois. The curves on that piano bench (the light was at the right angle) caught my attention, but I couldn’t make it look good enough so I had to find something to add to the photo 😉 While writing this reply, I went back to look for those bench photos (without eggs) to see how bad they are, and just realized that I accidentally deleted all, thinking I had copied them to my hard drive, but no… ;-( Oh well… have to take more photos 😉
Have a great day.

Good images for the idea when life throws us a curve ball, there is still beauty to help us carry one.

Have a wonderful day! (Do you have a lot of snow there? It’s snowing here now, but we could see grasses last week, in Minnesota, in January it is kind of weird. )

No, we have rain and storms right now, but no snow, and it is not that cold. We think it is cold when it is 50 degrees outside.

By the way, what’s the difference between “follow” and “subscribe” your blog? (I suppose I could google 😉

Thank you, Julie. It’s time to take photos indoor. Too cold outside. If we keep trying, eventually we would get a few good ones 😉 And we still have a couple of those winter months !
Have a great day.
