Perspective
[May 15th 11:25pm EST]
... In the grand scheme of things,
we are but a moment....
make haste,
dear soul—
make haste.

Author's Note
While watching the lunar eclipse many inspired ideas or moments of contemplation came to mind, though I mostly found myself pondering ideas of insignificance and how quickly time can escape us.... ⏳

Blood moon red [HEART EYES]!!
It is interesting to me that this event occurred
on my first birthday as a freeman...
I feel that it is a powerful sign...
But you know... Nature has always communicated
with me on a deep level...
Nevertheless...
I feel it communicates with you as well...
May the magic continue to
manifest in your existential sphere...

Happy belated birthday, my friend!! 🎂🎈 🎉
I hope you had an extra special day yesterday and felt that freedom to your very core! The eclipse falling on your birthday is indeed a piercing and powerful 'omen', potentially symbolizing the year ahead to be more eventful; the effects of which can last months afterwards....The eclipse tends to throw us kind of askew, maybe leaving us flailing a bit (initially) but eventually enhancing our sense of perception to changes culminating.... Opening our eyes to different things /possibilities we might have not seen or perhaps overlooked previously....
Reaching an apex, of sorts.
Just what I read, while brushing up on it's appearance!
I'm thankful for you, lovely man.
and deeply appreciative of your kindness.

Hey B
I was just outside a few hours ago and gazed up the moon.
Totally feeling this poem right this second.
I even tried to take a pic but nope - just not the same.
It looked so big - like I could actually reach up
and touch it.
Loved this!!
I'm keeping your pic cause mine is just horrible!! LOL

I seek to "make haste" but not hurry
follow a wise person's words
so that I may always be appreciative
of that sweet sound of the birds
Conveying a common nature
your words relate to us all
the beauty of this Spring write
is it isn't a complicated call

Re: Re. Perspective
I really enjoyed that quote, JM.
It's true and often not something a lot of people are able to fully grasp when they're young and really needing to understand it's meaning.. lol...I know it's never too late but for myself, it's a lesson I wish I paid closer attention to learning.
Make haste in fulfilling all your hearts desire while you're willing and able.... because it flies by.
Your lovely last stanza is such a wonderful smile inducer! Thank you so much for sharing all your thoughts with me, what a treat.
Warmest regards, my dear

In the grand scheme of things, we are but a moment: make haste, dear soul— make haste.
By the time we perfect the environment to finally get it right....
By the time we get it together, it's too heavy to lift....and, bam....it's done!
All the more reason to live while we're above ground.

Ah, but a mere moment can result in so many things.
You are right on perspective, our sphere of being is just spec of sand in an endless beach.

Re: Re. Perspective
Very very true, my dear Leo .... Yet even one spec of sand can ultimately play a huge role in producing something as beautiful as a glistening pearl.... Insignificance can be subjective....Those moments reflecting on the eclipse made me fill with a rekindling of passion; pledging to myself to not waste the few 'moments' I have left...
Thank you for being a part of my love of the universe, space exploration and the mysteries the cosmos keeps closed chested...It's an otherworldly pleasure to have a kindred spirit along for this journey!
Much love-

Dear BV,
I’m a bit too tired these days to make any haste but I do appreciate the idea of feeling like a tiny spec within a vast cosmos. We’re such nothings compared to the lunar universe. I love everything about this poem from the formatting and message to that amazing photo! Really beautiful piece. H🌷

Re: Re. Perspective
I hear ya, H.
Make haste was more a "don't waste time!" kinda thought in my head. Trying to kick as much ass as you can, while you can.... because I often have that 'I'm way too tired to hurry', issue, too... lol.... whew!
😉🙄😏
Feeling that sense of small insignificance is definitely a twinge of deep emotional umpf that really can put things into perspective. I'm so appreciative that you felt meaning and some resonance here.... how lovely is that!! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me, dear lady.
Here's to getting some rest and realignment - 🥃
I couldn't love your visits more-💙

Hey there...

Sorry I missed these comments.
Thanks, for the thoughts and you're so right... Most good things or even the most difficult (but much needed) lessens, take time to sink in.
Good observation.
Glad you felt a bit of enjoyment

Hey there, Lj
It's really great to hear from you tonight. I'm so glad you found some emotional connection. That's exactly the sense I had... Urgency! It's sometimes hard to feel when you're younger but it literally flies by... Before you know it, 20 years seems like minutes! Thank you for the generous kind words and for taking time out to leave your takeaway with me.
It's always such a real pleasure to see you and hear what you think!
I hope you are doing well :)

Reminds me of pictures of earth far off in the distance, the little blue dot and how small we are compared to the universe. So you're right, we have to make haste.

It was an amazingly clear night to catch the lunar eclipse. It felt really moving watching the progress throughout the night, too...
I'm so glad you got to see the blurry little photo of it... lol... It really did put a lot of things into perspective.
Thanks for the lovely comments and for your time, Walter.
Means a lot that you 'catch up'
Hope all is well with you and yours.
