Thorns

Plants and life are not all flowers and sunshine.  Hopefully you do not encounter many thorns in your life.

We are showing more photos from Julie's recent raft trip through the Grand Canyon on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site it.  It is a unique place.

  4. I think some of the thorns of life are beneficial wouldn't you say. Some I have experienced I could have done without but some of them have actually enhanced my life and made me stronger. Like your picture!!

  7. This is very true. Today I went into a neglected part of the yard and was pulling out greatly overgrown weeds. Many thorns were encountered along the way, but things look a bit better over there.

  8. Live without thorns is totally unrealistic, but how one encounters them determines the future. Your photo clearly shows that they are visible and can be avoided. Circumvent pain whenever possible!!
