Believe it or not – ‘Believing is Seeing’!!!
I have heard people commenting that ‘Seeing is believing.’ But from now onward the process may change. They will believe first and then see. That is exactly what happened to me today.
I was taking my usual walk along the trail when I began to believe floating squirrels flying in the air frolicking over their newly found freedom from the hold of gravity all around me.
And because the squirrels knew that I believed in them, they began to show up one after another around my head. Some of them felt very encouraged by my believing in them and began to show all kinds of aerodynamic floating skills.
Most of them speeded past my head with their backs facing the ground and face looking upward to see the treetops from where they were being watched by suspicious birds. They knew those suspicious birds believed in them.
Those remarkable floating squirrels shared the air with dragon-flies and wasps, birds and water-vapour, aeroplanes and fairies, germs and locusts. They stretched their limbs to face four corners of the sky as part of some squirrel belief.
It was none of my business to ask them about squirrel beliefs. My belief at least showed them above my head whizzing pass by with random speeds.
I strongly believe others will also begin to see what they believe.
