Do you "listen"
Seated out on my balcony while it poured in sheets down in front of me. The rain calmed my beating heart. The soothing noises called to me to just listen. Absorb all that is being heard, felt.
No I didn't touch the rain. I danced in it. I felt like a little child pouncing in puddles. And still I knew I looked silly but I still feel like a child inside, some days. What can I say nature really intrigues me. All parts of a storm I am thrilled by.
Granted there are days where I cannot hear it but the vibrations of sounds are just enormous. Simple how I go back to knowing I only have certain senses. To hear I listen with my eyes closed. It is more that I am feel with my soul, with my fingers the sound.
The very core of me explodes in its own way when a storm comes.
Today it has been a building ear ache. Just means that by no means I need to wear my hearing aid. Sometimes I need to be brought back to the basics of how my life started. Take away the mechanical things that enhance my life, and I see the real beauty of nature.
To dance with the hummingbirds as they chitter in front of my face. Just simple parts of the ordinary day to make me sit down and just "listen" to what is the grandest display of love I could possibly receive.
I don't expect anyone who can hear to ever really understand this part of me. Yet I dare them to be deaf or blind for just a moment. Just "listen". Not with your ears or your eyes but through feel, through scents and through tasting. Enjoy the moment as I do.
Just sit back and let the world spin a delicious picture before you. Now tell me - what do you "hear" and "see".
Hmm.
