You Don't Notice
...what your soul sees clearly.
Oh, this world! Even when I focus my attention I often fail to see what’s near to me. Somehow the awesome beauty of the blue sky on a summer day will elude my wandering eyes. And I may not even notice the pain and suffering of others hiding in plain sight. It seems I only call to awareness what I want my eyes to see or my ears to hear. But bless my soul; he’s a tireless instigator, randomly knocking on doors, then wheeling and dealing with all sorts of shady spirits. Before too long, I find myself digging out from all the wonderful mischief my soul has invited.
