So Much To An Image

I took this photo a few years ago in Norway. I found it this year and cropped it a bit, sent it off to be printed by an online printing service and it now sits in a simple frame on my desk. It seems to stand for how i've been feeling these past months although i'm not sure exactly what that is. Sometimes lonely, often in awe. Apprehensive yet intrigued. Somedays the girl in my picture stirs the water with her toe, on others she dances, but when I think of the future and the promises that God has given for my life, she steps out. On those days she laughs, deep and clear as the water before her.


Isn't it strange how we can attatch so much to an image? As an interesting aside, the girl stands on the royal property of the King of Norway, the location of their small but beautiful palace which rests on the banks behind her overlooking the fjord. Does she realize that she herself is royal property, a pearl of great price?
