Joyful Ruins

Discovering joy in the hard places

Amphibian You

What if you are an amphibian

in the ecosystem of humanity?

Made to absorb

And thus

more easily overwhelmed

The detector of the toxic

and the one which stresses

more quickly

It is just biology

Do you judge the frog

or salamander

for how they are made?

or do you seek to understand

to care

to create an environment where they

thrive

Can you do the same for yourself?

because

you are an amphibian

and it is just your biology

I see the world through stories and insights. I have always been a sensitive soul, especially towards nature, people, art, and faith. I spend a lot of time reflecting and finding treasures wherever I can. The two values I live by are beauty and celebration. I hope my blog communicates those two things, seeing beauty where beauty is not often seen and celebrating every aspect of life, the hard and the easy.
