Barbed Wire
I heard this yesterday. A little girl describing the barbs on barbed wire. "They're like stars." Not a description I would have thought of, but how beautiful. It made me realise (yet again) the need to look at things with fresh eyes.
Hi Shauna - I was exploring your world and found your lovely story about barbed wire stars - it reminded me of KIm Hill talking to Emily Perkins on the weekend and discussing a pot of boiling water ... "the water was juggling" Similar new perspective on life, which I loved! Thanks for your efforts over the last week - very much appreciated your help. Margaret
