Consider the Snail – 12 Great Pictures

Consider the Snail

Where he goes he leaves a trail.
When he goes where he shouldn’t be,
His trail is there for all to see.

Our life is like the little snail,
Where we go we leave a trail.
The things we do and the things we say,
Are the trail we leave from day to day.

    Great images! I just stumbled on your site by typing the word ‘slowness’ on google search. I will be sure to come back and continue to look at the amazing library of photographs you have catalogued. You’ve got a new fan. I am writing a post in a blog related to slowness, and I will be sure to link back to this site for some eye candy.
