To See

To See by William Blake

To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.

What shall you see today? Problems, faults and limitations or apertures to the infinite that most around you will likely overlook? Regardless of what you or others around you do, they will be there, for they are always at hand.

    Thanks Gregg, your words, in reflection, certainly helped open the way!
    A great day it is!

    As before I was blind now I see. Challenges may blind us if we fail to set our orientation on the aperatures to the infinite. To recognize when we are focused on problems, faults or limitations because of having an unsettling experience should simply be an alert to get back to a rightful orientation. A deep sense of thankfulness to recognize misorientation can gracefully bring us back in step with the infinite working through us.

    Thanks Gregg for the starting point for a new week filled with appreciation. There is evidence to support whatever we choose to focus on, beauty or decay, victim or victor, the choice is ours. Why not live in a world filled with beauty, seeing “heaven in a wildflower”? Sounds like the best available point of leverage to work from to me! Thanks!

    It’s really amazing how a change in perspective can change the way you think about and approach every detail. Today will be a day where the apertures, not the limitations, will be emphasized.
