A couple weekends ago, Brian and I went to Paris. We had last visited five years ago when we lived in Heidelberg the first time, and really wanted to see a few things that we had not yet seen. More on that in a later blog. Anyway, we came across this fun piece of art and wondered who thought it up. I love the design! A sidewalk bubbling up quite literally with a fountain. The whimsy of this piece, right in the intersection of a busy Parisian square reminds me to stop and laugh at life. All to often we are going about our days, focused more on the worry, the 'gotta get this done', the busy-ness of it all to smile and have a little fun. Perhaps that's what the artist was thinking when this piece came to fruition. Perhaps today you can think of something, smile, and relax, if only for a moment.
