The Space You Forget to Look At

Several people said they couldn't see my profile in the photo of the "optical illusion sculpture" I posted here yesterday. This edited picture is to help those people out.

Hopefully they can now see the optical illusion in my Pirolette (the name of the clever wooden sculpture created by the wonderful people at www.turnyourhead.com)

The Pirolette is, as the Turn Your Head website explains in all caps --

"...A SOLID ARTIFACT OF A SPACE WE FORGET TO LOOK AT. "

I love my little Pirolette. Not only does it look good sitting anywhere I put it, but every time I see my profile in that "space we forget to look at," I smile.

I also like what it teaches about perception: Look at it one way and you see a wooden sculpture; look at it another way and you see my profile.

I think it's just like life: You can see the glass as half full or as half empty. The glass doesn't care.

It's all your choice.

What do you see when you look around your life?

Ao Akua,

PS - If you haven't seen the movie The Secret yet - which stars Esther Hicks/Abraham, Bob Proctor, Jack Canfield, John Assaraf, me and a long list of other authors and teachers - then zip over to www.whatisthesecret.tv This inspiring movie is sure to help awaken you to seeing new possibilities and opportunities everywhere -- even in blocks of wood.

PPS - This morning I received a warm email from Germany, from Cortney Langenegger, Sales Manager/Webmaster for www.turnyourhead.com She wanted to thank me for yesterday's blog post -- apparently it's bringing their site lots of traffic -- and she wanted to apologize for not sending me an email confirmation when I placed my order. I love that she wrote me and plan on buying more from their site. (I want to get a Pirolette for Nerissa. Don't tell her!) You can't beat a business that offers a unique product and personal service, as well. Note: Mother's Day is coming up. Get a Pirolette for her of either your profile or hers - or both. (I don't make a dime from urging you to get the product. I just - as should be clear by now - love it.)
