It’s been awhile since I’ve entered Sally D’s Mobile Photography Challenge. The subject of the first week of each month is Nature. This reminded me of this picture I took recently. Even though I don’t believe in luck, I snapped the photo of this little guy to remind me to focus on good fortune… good fortune I will create.
I believe “good luck” comes to those who consistently do the next right thing over time. So now I think of the cricket as a symbol of consistency, as opposed to luck.
Mary, as I recall, the French think of crickets as good luck symbols. But I do like your interpretation. We certainly have a lot of these creatures here in the autumn. Lovely to have you participate, and happy 2017. Happy Photo Challenge.
I like your interpretation better than “luck.” I’ve been using a sound track for sleeping “noise” at night, a combination of water and cricket sounds. So they’re good for that, too, (although they can be much too loud!) 🙂
