On my journey through life sometimes I have blind spots
I am so focused on my goal that I do not see
what is around me in the world . . .
I am fixed and obsessed with a single minded purpose
I am staring at the goal
failing to see the beauty on the fringes
the flight of birds in the sky
the pleasure of walking in nature
just taking a breath and doing nothing
yes, I can give myself permission to just do not a thing
I must leave the dark curved walls of my own making
the long endless tunnel I have created
unplug . . . .
take the blinkers off
put the headphones down
no more hiding
STOP doing the same thing over and over again
and look for the light at the end of my narrow view
widen my vision . . . for
as it has been said- it is all about the journey
not the destination -
