16 Dec Travel Photo Thursday | Acadia National Park
Today’s photo was taken during my trip to Bar Harbor, Maine. We had taken a trolley tour of the beautiful and picturesque Acadia National Park.
This picture affected me because it was a gentle prod that, in the scheme of things, we are but a speck of lint floating around the universe.
That alone should be a wake-up call that we are no more important than anyone else no matter how much our sometimes over-inflated egos may beg to differ.
It takes the beauty of nature to remind us of that.

Posted at 16:24h, 16 DecemberSometimes it is good to be reminded of just how ‘small’ we are and that we are no better or no worse than anyone else. Great picture and reminder of our place in this world.

I’m imagining that Atlantic ocean going all the way out to Europe. Endless.

Posted at 13:58h, 05 FebruaryYes, I decided to change it for two reasons….to help with the loading time and I wanted something more fun and carefree. Glad you like it!
