metaphors

making meaning, evoking insights

From time to time I capture photographs that evoke feelings that I need to process and articulate. Some of these photographs then become part of my metaphor collection.
The beauty of a metaphor is that it can trigger memories, evoke insights and help unfreeze frozen dreams.

unfreeze a frozen dream

As you view these images below, I invite you to put on your favourite music that allows you to self-reflect. Choose music that doesn't draw you into the words or the rhythm. When you're ready, look at each metaphor for a full minute and then tap into what you are feeling in response to what you are seeing. When you have a word for that feeling, ask yourself one key question for each metaphor. The purpose of this process is to help you unfreeze a frozen dream you might have and get in touch with a MAD [My Actual Desire] goal and compelling future you might have been denying yourself for years.
