Maine: The Way Life Should Be
Photography and musings on a state slogan.
Life should be appreciated.
Life should be lived without any scraps left on the table.
Life should be a grand experiment in imagination. Even small row boats have the potential to cross great oceans.
Life should be celebrated.
Life should be dramatic.
Life should be full of adventure, rocky at times, with the understanding that every sunrise brings about the possibility for improvement.
Life should be about laying foundations for future generations, serving as a beacon of hope and a warning of pitfalls, so that they can make new discoveries.
Life should be full of sandy feet and sun tans.
Life should be lived as one with nature, taking time to recognize that which makes us feel alive, small and humbled.
Life should be tasty and fresh.
Life should be wild, full of surprises and unexpected visitors.
Life should be bold and colorful.
Life should be cherished, preserved and cared for.
Life should be full of sturdy docks to cling to when you need stability, or to jump from when you need a thrill.
Most of all, life should be spent with those you love. (On the Casco Bay Ferry with my Mainer.)
Now it’s your turn to comment. Think about Maine or any place that evokes “The Way Life Should Be.” What would you like to add?

Life should be filled with the wonderful aromas of home cooking!
Great piece. Would love to have this in a book form.
Life should be embraced every morning as the gift it truly is!
