Traumatic Experiences Community Daily Check-In Sunday May 13th 2018

Good Morning Alle, I hope Everyone is well today.

I took my rest late, and thus awoke (comparitively). As I completed my morning prayers and rites this morning I stood still in the cold morning aer to be with the world around me. A dark cloak of fur covers most of the sky this morning yet Sol, the Sun breaks through. I can smell and hear my neighbours cattle rousing each other for breakfast and the new day. The trees are filled with song. A pair of cranes flew over head (strange sound they make). I coughed and 4 deer in my middle pasture stood up and vanished into our wood. Many geese flew over head, Behold the fire of migration! Life is returning with the fair weather.

As I came back indoors and made my morning cup, I pondered Perception. If I payed attention to the modern world creeping and sprawling miles in the distance I would have recognized the sounds of a near by rural highway with light early Sunday morning traffic. I would have heard car doors of my neighbours hastilly closing as a weary soul heads off to a job he dreads giving his freedom to. If I payed attention I would have heard aerplaines in the sky rushing people to far away lands. Alle I hear in my morning is the sounds of the natural world around me as I choose.

Perception is an amazing and powerful thing. Handled with care and grace, one can see, hear, smell, taste, and feel an amazing and wonder filled world around them. But our perceptions can also confuse, and misguide us. One may look at the awesome and devestating force of a volcano and see destruction and woe, or one may look at it and see the beauty of change and rebirth in it's chaos. How do you see and wish to see your world around you? How do you use your power of perception? Do you fixate on the chaos and destruction, or do you see the beauty in change?

Drop us a phost, speak your glory or woe, or just say hi. The world is yours, have the courage to take it and make it so.
