Hush..
Story:
Not often, but once in awhile during the course of your life you will see
something out of the corner of your eye, perhaps just a blur in the
background or you may hear a faint something. You're moving to fast
while thinking of something else when your ‘glimpse’
occurred. Many times throughout your life you will consciously pause for no
reason, if not for just a second or two; sound slowly fades away and your sight becomes crystal clear in what
appears to be ‘tunnel vision’.
Something very special has made you pause; if only for that brief moment.
You exit that moment a little bewildered; you realize you don't know what has occurred. A rare and brief instance in your life in which your
mind has included you. Something
out of the ordinary has occurred and you where invited by your sub-consciousness
to participate. Yet, what exactly has occurred, you do not know. You search your
senses and again realize there is no recognizable smell, nor sound, nor vision
you can ’associate’ with your known experience. You are momentarily baffled
until you regain your original thought and momentum. Suddenly you quickly recall
your original thoughts. Most
people shrug this feeling off without another thought and continue on their
merry way. However, there are those who realize at that moment if they continue on the path
they are taking, their lives will be changed forever.
This is a sub-conscious crossroads of sorts. On these very rare
occasions, the mind lets you into the master plan.
The mind, however momentary, included you in its thinking process.
Out of the blue, it asks you to make the choice. Through all your
life, all your days, experiences, etc., your mind was suppose to get you to this
place, at this particular moment in our evolution; and it has paused, your mind and you
are suppose to be physically on that exact azimuth on the earth at that exact time
in our evolution. This is one of
‘your’ ‘place holders’ in time. You
have ‘glimpsed’ your destiny. Sometimes
it is best to walk over to a bench, sit down, and look slowly around while using
your senses to record every item. Doesn't
it seem odd that everyone around you is in such a great hurry? They're
not, you are just moving very slow. You
don’t have to know why you are suppose to be here, but take as long as you
must to try and find out by ‘taking it all in’.
Remember, it is highly likely there were others around you or in your
line of sight that were looking at you and including you and that moment in
their ‘glimpse’ or destiny. You
have been included for a reason; pay attention.
Most will not! And most will
miss very important times in their lives, extraordinary, one of a kind, personal
milestones. Most will never learn to
become ‘one’ with their consciousness. It is their unique consciousness;
yet most will remain apart forever. The
fortunate are ’aware’ and recognize these instances and associate them with very special, very personal, genuine life altering experiences.
They embrace that which is new only to them. They know, ’just over
there’ a moment ago they passed through a window in life.
They glimpsed where they are and where they are going.
It’s as if everything around them went into ‘slow motion’ mode and
they mentally became invisible to all that existed around them.
Sounds stopped, winds stopped, and for a split second you where oblivious
to what you where looking at and that which observed you! Your
body has slowed to a crawl, for no apparent reason you slowed to a stop;
cautiously you look around for hints of what has occurred to make you stop moving. It’s not
apparent that you don’t hear anything, or feel the wind.
Your eyes are searching for something, anything.
Your mind has told you to view all objects in that particular vicinity
without passing through. For whatever reason your mind had to make sure you
paused at that specific time, moment, and place in our universe. The
‘tumblers’ were in ‘sync’. You had not planned to do so; hence, it did
it for you, without you. Many people realize at that moment there are two of
you. You and your conscience are one
yet separated by distinct thought processes of varied degrees of symbiosis. Many believe it is your
consciousness and you who move through
time forever; in tandem waves of thought. You are recording the universe of our
life and lives. The body being only a vehicle for this moment; your conscious
may ‘drift’ without you. You
give provide 'thought' with two things; consciousness, and time. Both
mute without our species; just as the universe is mute to us, without us. Those who
realize something has occurred are special and somehow have just a little
‘jump’ on millions of other humans in the evolutionary chain. A simple pause
will do; however, you may slowly turn to see where you have been and smile.
Perhaps it’s the small line on your brow which gives you away; for at
these times you know you are alone and very special.
One of a kind and although you are traveling with others, you remain
separate and unique. These decisions
are yours and yours alone. For
seconds, the excitement can be overwhelming.
The butterflies in your stomach tickle to be set free.
You will alter the rest of the universe with your next move, even more so
than before. The rest of
your life starts with a new perspective. Rest assured most people
don’t see what you see, don’t hear what you hear; most can’t smell the
scent of roses in quite the same way you have; you are one of the lucky ones!
Most people don’t look for special moments.
Most are oblivious to their existence and therefore don’t seek
experiences out. They lack the passion of the moment.
The moment being hundreds of years, perhaps millions. You will recognize
the ones who went on, who followed their passion.
They are the ones you cannot keep up with; the ones who breathe life
through their nostrils until their lungs burst.
They are the ones hurrying to the next corner to see where the aroma of
Italian food is coming from. They
are the dark silhouettes standing in front of you amid fireworks; fighting to get
just a little closer, and those who stand on a curb forever to catch a glimpse
of a Chinese dancing dragon coming down a street are the 'touched' ones!
They sip life as if dew falling on their tongues.
They listen intently to sounds; and if you are standing close to them,
sometimes, not often, you can hear them softly say, “hush”, I heard
something! They say "did you hear that?” You
are the lucky one if you look back and smile because you are kindred spirits
traveling through life. You have arrived at the same spot in time and in life
you have both realized at that same instant it is a wonderful place to be. You are
supposed to be there! For moments which require silence and pause are rare
indeed, because only you can hear the sounds of your life.
When the sounds of crashing waves from a distant beach finally reach you;
a moment may pass while you smile to your self and smell the scent of the sea.
Don’t tell all your secrets to me for others are listening for your
whisper. Hush, did you hear
something? Can you feel the love of
others thinking of you? Do not let the fear
of the unknown occupy my time. Weave the unknown into your trust with
threads of excitement and patchworks of a unique life.
You are the only
one; your mind is mingled with all that is and all there will ever be. How can
something so unique, something so special as to be one of a kind in the universe
every leave? You cannot leave dear friend, for we will see
each other again. Look for me and know the rest of those who love you dearly,
will always be looking for you. All
the best my friend, until tomorrow. then.
