It seems like the labyrinth image comes into my life coincidentally <\/em>when things are complex. I saw this photo recently by Bill O’Leary of a child navigating the new labyrinth at the Georgetown Waterfront Park. At first I thought it was an illustration because the light seemed so surreal, yet the lines appeared so sharp and photo-realistic — similar to Norman Rockwell’s hyper-realism. But, I was pleasantly surprised to discover it was a photo that captured a lovely childlike moment in time and just happened to have fantastic lighting and great composition, as well as an abstract, graphic quality with bold color.<\/p>\n

I wish I had a labyrinth in my back yard. I could use one right now since there are so many things to muddle through. I have walked several different versions of labyrinths at different locations and they always help me make sense of what seems puzzling. They are very meditative, thought-provoking vehicles. But what’s interesting to me is the labyrinth image appears at most confusing times in my life as if it were a symbol sent to help me when I’m not looking for it.<\/p>\n

My earliest recollections of the labyrinth<\/a> was when I first saw it in Art History books and then experienced it in Medieval churches in France, I believe. Then again when a friend died of brain cancer, and it was her will to dedicate a labyrinth to her Alma mater. My son Piers went to help in the hurricane relief effort for New Orleans, my hometown, and one of the projects was to paint a labyrinth. And here again it appears when other friends are also struggling with a similar life threatening illness. Why does the labyrinth remind me of a brain too? Could it perhaps be ever so symbolic of not only the puzzle but the mind itself– having both psychological and practical qualities?<\/p>\n

Here’s an interesting video link that I found of another new “green” rooftop labryinth<\/a> in DC. It just happens to be on the top of the American Psychology Building’s Headquarters. Uncanny or not…and my last post was about surgery<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
