Kaleidoscope - Magpie #63

The universe spins and galaxies collide. Here on our little planet, seasons change, mountains erupt, seas rage and recede. Birth and life, suffering and death continue on. Elements split apart and recombine in endless repetition. Another turn and look, something beautiful is born.

    Lolamouse . . there's no harm in that. This Magpie reminds me of a recent one of mine too, so we all must be getting at a universal truth!

    Lolamouse and Lucy, It's true. The more I look at this and read others' interpretations, the more I see the symbolism of the kaleidoscope. It sort of helps me visualize the confusing concepts of parallel universes and alternate streams of reality.

    Lovely and so true, the repetition of birth and death, a lovely thoughtful post.
