Just A Thought
Perspective.
I’ve been thinking about perspective quite a lot lately.
Yours, mine, hers, his.
’cause, you know, we all have one.
That particular attitude, the certain way we see this world,
each other,
life.
hmmmm
& would you like to know just who placed Perspective right smack dab into the middle of my brain ?
Irma
It was Hurricane Irma.
That beast of a storm has got me pondering, big time.
& I just can’t seem to get her domino effect out of my head.
Interrupted events.
Why did this happen ? encounters.
Life will never be the same disruptions.
Chaos, havoc.
Love, kindness.
wow
& now, she’s gone but, here we are
& there !
right there, sits Perspective.
Yesterday, I offered up this blog space to two special someones who firsthand experienced the intimidating power of Irma
& for some reason, as I read their timetable and felt their feelings, I flash-backed to words I had written a few months ago …
——————–
Dang, I wish I could write those stories.
Give me a hard working vehicle, a patient driver, a road map to nowhere in particular, a notebook, a side road and I’ll find you
& You
& You
& You
& youyouyouyouyouyou.
Because I know beautiful YOU is out there.
Quietly chugging along doing your thing, treating your neighbor as you would like your neighbor to treat you.
Living life, loving life.
Being a good, decent, human being on this place we call Earth
& we just don’t hear enough about you on the nonstop, 24 hour, breaking, nightly news
& it’s too bad
& kinda sad.
Because YOU are America, people !!
You’re dependable and kind.
You’re helpful and generous
& you’d rather not spend your precious time being angry at me
& fyi …
I really, REALLY don’t want to be mad at you.
Deep down, I am POSITIVE we all just want NICE.
——————–
& today, I’m wondering about you and your perspective.
Yep
Your views about this, about that.
About whatever.
But, since I can’t physically drive to each and every single one of you, I’d like to offer up this space.
To YOU.
Why ??!??
Because the way I figure it, if YOU tell me how you feel, I can tell THEM and they can tell her and she can tell him
and so on and so on and so on …
Hey.
Maybe we could start our very own domino effect of understanding !!
& don’t tell me you’re too shy or you can’t write or you don’t know how to express those feelings
um
I’m the perfect example of OH YES YOU CAN
Oh, yes I every day do.
weeeeee
So, here you go.

Email me.
Whenever.
Whatever.
& I will pass your words on with the hope of building a kinder, gentler, we are all in this together, connection.
YaY.
I look very forward to meeting your perspective.
🙂
