It has been a long time since I have written anything. I hope everyone is wonderful. I had a incredible experience and wanted to share it with you. I was in Europe for 2 weeks, a week in Prague, Czech Republic and a week in Italy for my brother's wedding. I will send pictures later.
I realized something so profound, at least it was profound to me. I was in my favorite city in all the world, Prague. I wanted to experience Prague and all it's glory without all the people, and I wanted to take incredible pictures so, I got up at 4:00 am, just before sunrise and went to the main square and Charles bridge by myself, while Ernie slept. There were very few people, actually there was two people on the bridge, as I stood there, the light was illuminating the sky, I was incomplete awe. The feeling was hard to explain, but I will try. A wave of complete joy came up from my belly, and came pouring out of me. I had no thoughts, just pure awe of my surroundings. I remember saying out loud, " God do you feel what I am feeling, do you see what I am seeing?" At that moment I got it. I realizing that I am so unique, that there is no one in the world like me, like you! Because, at that moment I saw the Charles Bridge, like no one else did. I saw it through my eyes, through who I am. Thousands of people a hour are on that bridge and each one of them are experiencing the moment differently from all the rest. The bridge has been the same for 700 years, the streets of Prague don't change, everything is the same as is was and will be for the next 600 years, but the way each person sees it, experiences it, is what makes us unique. We see the world from our past, our perceptions, through who we are at each given moment,and that is what makes us unique. That moment on the bridge, I realized how incredible and unique I really am, how we all are. It is like the old saying, " beauty is in the eye of the beholder." "life is in the eye of the beholder." So, how do you see the world around you? Do you see a hawk as the incredible creature it really is, or do you even notice it at all. NOTHING is what it seems, you make it what it is. Life is truly wonderful!
