Heart in the Park Labyrinth in Tonkawa580-628-2220 |
This labyrinth in a Tonkawa park can be a place to walk, or to read a book, or to just enjoy an autumn day- but then again, it actually so much more. The twists and turns can be thought of just like your life, right? A day in your life has twists and turns, so sometimes when you walk the labyrinth and think this is like a whole day of my life- you begin your life and a day goes one way and then another but then you always make it to the end and have experiences along the way.
