In today’s Daily Prompt, the word given is Phase. Of course, the first thought that may cross one’s mind is likely to be moon-related, as we deal with the phases of the moon on a regular basis.
Then there could be the phase that one is going through, particularly said when referring to tantrums by children; sometimes that may actually be wishful thinking 🙂 One could also be out of phase, or experience phase distortion.
Then again, when I thought of phase, this image came to mind:

There are multiple stages of phases of development between grass, flowers and trees. But if you look carefully, you also notice the dilapidation of the road surface in the right side of the image, going toward a phase of destruction.
Embrace the phases in your life and all life that surrounds you! Breathe them in and enjoy the moment, in which you find yourself.
