" Its A Great Day For The Irish "

..............................................................

 

Use your gift of perception and discernment to its fullest

Its how you perceive your world that colors your day

Your insight and judgement must be spot on

If you are to gain a clear picture of what unfolds

So train your mind and senses to act in unison

To elicit the substance of the matter

Reason and knowledge can only partially ascertain

What is Truth and what is Illusion

Remember to use your side and peripheral eyesight

That way you won't miss a thing

Consider the ways of the golden eagle

Three hundred and sixty degree vision

The least movement is detected

Total awareness of his surroundings

Still your body to be at complete rest

Allow your intuition to arise

Settled and calm at your core

You are fully cognizant of your environment

Primed and ready for all eventualities

Make sure you walk with balance and surefootedness

And you will always reach the other side

Dear Peter,

The art of understanding and perceiving is respecting... accepting that one should never be judgemental in ANY sphere. Learning to use the gift of "perception and discernment" to its fullest, is precisely what many need to do.

Enlightening write Peter.

Very intuitive and soaring write, Peter. Being perceptive prevents us from being wadded up and thrown in a corner or flattened under pressure. We must use our intuition in our daily lives, even when our hearts have felt the sentence of death. The eagle raises us up to a higher level of awareness and lets us enable our original shape after being bent, broken, and stretched. Thanks for the daily inspiration, Peter.

I agree with Aberjhani and the others Peter! You give us the path towards the light of understanding. You have the keen perspective of an eagle! Splendid poetry!

Humans, too, have the ability to see things from different perspectives but few are willing to walk in another's shoes ... we all seem to be so comfortable in our own.

Love & Light,

Marvelous advice, Peter - I've seen those golden eagles - and they are marvelous creatures. And we would all do well to learn something from Nature.

Very strong and beautifully inspired lines on the gifts of higher consciousness and PERCEPTIONS. In times when so much can easily drag one down into the depths of despair, it's empowerfing and healing to remember that we can elevate our spirits above the crippling effects of the turmoil. Love the photo of the eagle--powerful symbol for one of my tribes:-)
