Hve you ever felt disoriented by a shift in perspective that came out of no where and threw you off your plate?
I mean, when you are standing some place you've stood hundreds of times before and it's just not the same but you can't tell why.
When a front porch becomes a play pin. When the grass between your toes is suddenly crawling with snakes and spiders. When a country road becomes an unexplored wilderness. When a murder of crows becomes a flock of black feathered messengers from another dimension. When the clouds in the sky become chemical threats and your water is toxic sludge. When your car becomes a time capsule or another world completely cut off from it's surroundings and shooting you through time and space like some kind of futuristic vehicle of transportation.
What is real? Sometimes I wonder how much perception creates our entire reality. It makes me doubt reality exists and it throws me into a panic.
Life is ONLY what we perceive it to be... Reality is our own creation.
ReplyDeleteSome of us just happen to have realities not too far off from the 'popular' thoughts of reality.
Don't let it panic you. Embrace the different views you can have... Explore the world with new eyes... Be the curious child again...
