Perspective…
GO!

I see my world a certain way.

I see the wind and the waves as fresh breath to my lungs.

I see the rain as a cleanse to the earth and my soul.

I see a dog as a friend, a companion, a cheerful reminder that we all need to be loved.

I see worlds and universes in the mere typeset of books on a shelf.

I see friends as family and family as my own flesh.

I see my gifts and talents as tools in my hand.

I sometimes see those tools wasted or hidden or under-used when I forget who I am.

I see faith as a lifestyle and God as a dear friend.

You may see the world around you differently.

I see through eyes of someone on the sidelines who longs to jump in only to find my own feet already in the game.

I see love and passion and creativity in butterfly wings, in the eyes of a mother or in the stars as they wink at me.

I see only as far as I open my eyes to see.

STOP!
