Upon looking at the big rig, the front part of a semi-truck, which is to be the subject of this week’s Sunday Photo Fiction challenge, thoughts brewed through Barb’s mind. “How does this photo inspire me?” A series of questions came to mind.
Why do they call them semi-trucks?
What do they deliver in semi-trucks? Occasional furniture.
What do they call occasional furniture the rest of the time?
Why do we call it a hamburger when it is made of beef?
Can you imagine getting sick at the airport and having the terminal Dr. treat you?
If cannibals ate clowns, would they taste funny?
Aren’t all babies new?
Why do Dr.’s practice medicine?
Looking again at the rig, I realize that for today, this is as good as it gets.

A Lesson From Nature

Wouldn’t it be great if we, humans, could all just learn to live together and coexist peacefully? I took a series of photos after seeing for myself how this is possible. The lesson came from watching the birds in my area.
Imagine a world where we can all live together side by side in peace. None of these birds make fun of one another because their feathers are different colors, or that some are bigger some are smaller.
A mix of birds
Imagine a world where we can share without bickering.
Sharing
Imagine a world where everyone of us cooperates with others without anger, greed, lust, gluttony, sloth, envy or pride.
Cooperation
Imagine a world where there is no fighting.
No fighting
Imagine living in a world of peace.
Living in Peace
Wouldn’t that be a wonderful world? Think about the trees in the forest. Oaks, pines, madrones, tamarack, all share the forest floor. They do not ridicule one another for the differences in their bark. They do not fight each other for ground. They live in peace.
Every day nature shows us a world living in peace. We, humans, just need to stop and take notice that we too can live in a world of peace.
Here is John Lennon, singing one of my favorite songs: “Imagine.” Credit of the video goes to JohnLennonMusic. The video begins with a commercial (sorry about that) and you can click on the bottom right to skip the ad.
