Your eyes has seen the truth

It makes me want to hear more....

Very nice great picture

I think many of us artists (both literary and visual) can attest to the truth in this, Rene!

THANKS FOR SHARING

That is awesome.

Enchanting, and beautifully phrased.

Brilliant! :-)

Hugs and blessings - S.

Determined to complete my entry in the Snippets CHALLENGE!

wonderful snippet!

I love the illustration! It fits perfectly ... and well, I happen to agree whole heartedly about that other dimension! I call it love!

Thanks Lisa!

Michelle ~ You write the BEST Snippets! . . . I am always INSPIRED by what you write. Thank you for reading my Snippet, and for your beautiful comments. The other dimension of "LOVE", is a perfect description.

Perception truly can be reality, can it not? Great observation and the husbandry of words in this exercise shows great skill and discipline in your writing. Thank you, Rene.

LOVED this snippet! And isn't it soooooo true

I sometimes feel that people don't SEE me ... but sometimes it's OKAY!

There's something about that other world that finds a way to make itself seen...if only in glimpses. Wonderful snippet, Rene. The graphic is great too.

Thank you for reading and commenting Cassandra ~

HUGS ~
René

Thank you Joe ~ And, YES ~ it can.

Your Friend,
René

Thanks for stopping in to read this Jan ~ I can't SEE how people would not SEE YOU ~ L O L...

But on another Level, people have a hard time SEEing those things and people which are "ethereal". Could it be that you are sometimes in the ETHEREAL ZONE?

Hmmmmm . . .

Going to go check around to SEE if you have any posts that may have slipped into the ethereal zone ~ ahahah ~

HUGS ~
Your Friend,
Rene

Hi Renda ~ and thanks . . .

I like what you've said ~ "There's something about that other world that finds a way to make itself seen...if only in glimpses." ~ Renda Brooks

SO TRUE.

People often say I'm nuts when I say that reality is relavant, but it is. If we look with the inner eye, things look much different, and what we seek does count.

Amen Sharon ~ I so agree with you.

HUGS ~
Your Friend,
Rene
P.S. ~ You know you are not nuts ~ The "inner eye" is the SEEing EYE. {smiles}.

The unique perception of the individual combining with the whole.

A belated thank you for featuring my post in the group.

Hi Sunaura ~ Thank you for commenting, and you are welcome for the FEATURE. I'm waiting to SEE more of your artistic creations.

that's the hope i hold onto, another place

Amen Dawn.  Amen.

lovely and unique!

and thank you for reading and commenting Dawn.

The imagination can be a wondrous thing.

Hi Stacey ~ The "imagination" can be a wondrous thing . . . and The "divine" can be a miraculous thing.

Isn't it amazing HOW WE SEE things, perceive things, and process things?  What's more AMAZING is when God processes what He SEES through YOU!  Now that's SOMETHING!

Thanks so much for reading and commenting.

May you one day see that dimension which you know is out there. Also, I don't doubt for a moment that you'll achieve your snippet goal m'dear!

Lovely Ruth ~ Thank you for stopping by to comment on this Snippet. I did meet this particular Snippets CHALLENGE that is still being tallied to date ~ l o l ~ over in Snippets! ~ The real CHALLENGE lies in finishing the tally ~ ahahahah!

HUGS ~ Rene

You are of course 100% correct.

HUGS and MUCH EYE~to~EYE love Raven Spirit. Thank you for commenting!

I love it.

Indeed. I've always wondered how everyone couldn't see things this way...

:-)

I'm smiling, and thanking all of my favorite friends for dropping in to read my Snippet and comment.

Lena, Jerry, Julie and Aunt Shanny ~ I hope you four are having a wonderful weekend!

And, me too Julie to what you've said ~ L O L.

It is a good sign to explore this hidden dimension

Hi Dr. Saxena ~ I'm glad to hear you say that. Thank you for chiming in!

To snippets beyond dimension 3
And maybe beyond 4, we'll see.

"There are more things in heaven and earth than in your philosophies." WS

Good to SEE you Richard ~ Wonderful words you've given, and I do agree...

What truly is a philosophy but "vanity"...RA

Excellent concept that I have discussed with other people many, many times!

Hey Spartan ~ Thanks for dropping in ~ L O L. The discussions on SEEing can get very deep ~ but mostly enlightening. Glad you added your thoughts.

Funny, it's the way I understand things rather than how I see them that is weird. But it works for me. :-)

Hi Larry ~ Maybe the way you "understand" is not so weird after all ~ L O L. Especially since it works for you.

Thanks for adding in your thoughts.

Your Friend ~ Rene

What's weird about it is that it is rational. Few people are able to do that on a continuing basis. But I have no debt because I only borrowed to buy houses, I always have paid my credit card bill on time. I never have been unfaithful to my wife (in any way, not just in terms of sex). The things that happen in politics and business do not surprise me. I brush and floss every day. I exercise and avoid recreational drugs (including nicotine, alcohol, and caffeine) and keep my weight nearly constant by dieting when I get a couple of pounds over my preferred weight. I don't use prescription drugs unless they cure so I go years without taking any.

These things are all rational but most people cannot make themselves do them.

When it comes to the world around me I don't believe the explanations I am given but try to see what actually happens and figure out the causes and influences. Things are both more complicated and more simple than most people can believe. Following this principle I have become a very successful youth sports coach (my players improve a lot during the season) because my methods and what I teach is unorthodox. But unorthodox because I understand how things work rather than accepting authority.

I am weird but that's a good thing for me.

RATIONALIZATION and/or RATIONALISM is really not weird at all Larry. However, there are varying "realities"...

ALTERNATIVE METHODS of "healing" and "curing" ARE RATIONAL ways in which to maintain the body, mind and soul to some people.

...to other people, prescription drugs is rational. Listening to the Doctor's advice is rational ~ even if it kills you. -- For others it is "rational" to pay attention to what their own body is telling them...to not be so "fearful" of every pain and ache--but to use those pains and aches as a way to better understand "self".

Going to the next comment box to continue Larry...

As for the "dieting" -- I've never had to diet. WHY? Because I have a very HIGH metabolism. Like you Larry, my weight stays constant -- but without any effort on my part, and without counting calories, or exercising regularly. I'm blessed like that -- but I also believe that WORDS have POWER. And since people constantly say to me, "How can you eat like that and stay the same size!" ~ "You never gain a pound!" ~ "You make me sick because you don't have to diet." -- I just agree with them.

Most people who diet constantly talk about it, how they have to continue to diet, how they have to watch their weight...etc., etc., You get my point...

As for the following...

nicotine, alcohol, and caffeine ~ while not condoning any of these, there are plenty of people in their 90's who have smoked, drank alcohol and coffee and cokes all their life and are as fit as a fiddle. ALL a state of MIND.

Like I've mentioned, I believe that when you let others dictate to you what is good for you or not, you give them power over you. Suddenly, because a mass populace decides, "Oh my God, WE have to stop drinking colas!" -- "Too many calories!" -- "Too much caffeine!" some people will follow in the hysteria.... So now we have zero cokes that will prove to be bad for your health years down the road. We have people exercising their selves to death--literally--dropping dead while exercising.

So now, Larry, REALITY ~ RATIONALISM -- it is all relative to the person.

But I do understand exactly what you mean ~ L O L.

All (most ?) things in moderation, balance is the key.

Hey Jerry ~ I'm glad you popped in.

In this writing, I definitely meant "ALL".
