The Illusion of Reality

Illusion Of Reality. Gathered through our senses Sensory information Helps us make sense Of what we perceive as reality Something that is objective And not what others may perceive to be . We all have are own personal map of our world And often filter to see what we want to see Two people can share the same experience But see things so differently . Trying to see things from another's side With genuine empathy And try to inderstand their reality To often we are blinded by a dark uncertain world And so engrossed in our technology It’s so easy to forget the really important things in life That can really make us happy . Some may view the world as a dark cold reality And that’s all they will see While others look for beauty in the smallest things With gratitude and with blessings A tiny flower among weeds A perky robin that joyfully sings . For many reality and life is cruel Things never go to plan And often need care and encouragement If we can we should give them our hand . We may all be different But yet still the same You can’t judge someone by the colour of their skin Their origin or name . I believe there’s good in everyone If only we take the time To discover and bring it out Instead of stereotype labelling and reading minds . What ever our reality maybe It’s up to us to see what we see Always try to see the positive And avod negativity. . Peter Dome©2020.

WoW! You have penned a such profound and well written write. I agree , everyone sees the world through their own individual lenses. What we see shapes our reality. However, whatever is seen we must look for the positivity in the world, and help others see positivity if we can. Excellent write my friend. It’s good to see you posting. I hope you are well. Enjoy the rest of your day:-) Alexis
