I saw this compass symbol down on a business building near the Columbia River and even tho it has no direction letters on it, I recognized it as a compass. Today, I was hunting through old but recent photos that I have taken in order to find one to illustrate my blessing this week and it seemed a perfect fit. (My new camera which I took this photo with stopped working -- can't get the lens to open.)
Not only does it have 4 directions to choose for making personal choices but the center looks like a cross representation to me also. But, it's an empty cross -- a cross that reminds me to look to the ressurected Jesus for direction as I live my Christian life. My blessing is the reminder that I have "new life living in my heart" because I believe.
This is not a great photo of the cross, filled with flowers from last Sunday's "Festival of Flowers" service but the best I could take because it was raining and they hadn't moved the cross to the lawn yet.

Compasses, like crosses, offer direction. A pleasant merging of images and concepts. Thanks.
Beautiful pic, and blessing :)
A very good little use of imagery and metaphor! Great thoughts and images!
It is difficult to judge your pics are better or your thoughts related to them.
Thanks for the Blessings.
Lovely post, Paulie!
