We Walk We Talk Do We Listen...

Nothing Is Perfect Everything Has Reason

When we stop and listen we realize nothing living has it easy, whether it flies, wriggles or swaggers each has moments of having to prove itself worthy even though we don't always see it.

Stop, listen one bird calling from the tree top, another answers in the distance, what are they talking about?

Possibilities are endless they may be working in tandem, sharing a food source information, or possibly just reassuring each other, their species is still thriving, perhaps he is just flirting and she responded to let him know where she is.

A call of reassurance, isn't that how we all feel sometimes we arrive feeling down and despondent, a song, or content somehow triggers the right cord, changing a down day into a lot more positive note giving us hope to carry on.

Touching down gently nourishing oneself is why we return, become more grounded in thought by words of advice, an inspirational poem, or feeling the anguish miles away hearing news about someones loved one who did not return.

Counting moments, listening carefully there are many messages when walking, not talking, recycling thoughts, ambitions, projecting well being into our surroundings, enjoying the breeze with surround sound filling your ears.

Sort:  

even with damage on their wings those butterflies look so beautiful, and when I hear birds I often wonder what they are sharing with the other birds

Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :)

Your new home with adjacent quiet property you will be sure to see much more of nature visiting JJ.

Ohh yes for sure

Wonderful captures my dear ! The butterfly with his torn wing is still a beautiful creature .. 😊

Torn wing they still continue to strive forward ensuring their future, nothing in life is perfect and nature teaches us that.

Thanks for visiting @barbara-orenya
