Hummingbirds

Legends say that hummingbords float free of time, carrying our hopes for love, joy and celebration.  The hummingbird’s delicate grace reminds us that life is rich, beauty is everywhere and that...
Every personal connection has meaning...
* the people that feel special to you for reasons that you can’t explain
* those people who seem to exist outside of time and space whom you feel you have known for a thousand years
* the people who walk in and out of your dreams
* the people who make life worth living
* the people who inspire you
* the people that make you feel alive, awake and aware
 Remember the synchronicity of life when you see a hummingbird suspended in flight. 

Zombies

Are you a Zombie?  Are you someone who walks around asleep all of the time...wrapped up in your own self absorption?  Do you believe in your delusions of grandeur or do you just manufacture these "stories" to distract yourself from what is real and tangible?
Sometimes I feel as though I am the only one awake in a sea of comatose souls.  Why do so many people feel as though they need to be totally and unequivocally detached from everyone and everything around them?  Is life that painful?  Is it too difficult to acknowledge the essence of others...is it too inconvenient to even acknowledge one's own essence?
I notice it all the time.  The people who talk on their cell phones about absolutely nothing...mostly women.  They do it the entire time they drive, park their cars, walk across the parking lot and all through out the store.  They wonder around aimlessly but thank the goddess they have someone to distract them from who they really are...and from connecting with others.
Then there are the ones with the vacant eyes...there is nothing there!  Everyone around them is invisible...they are completely oblivious to everything around them.  Sometimes they spend their time on their cell phones too...
People text during concerts that are full of energy, passion, emotion and did I mention energy....:) What is going on here? 
Don't be a Zombie!  Be alive, awake and aware.  Experience life to the fullest!
