. . . "humming" bird . . .
Now I KNOW the 'why' after 54 years!
Now I KNOW the 'why' for the name!
Now I KNOW . . . because I realized when 'I listened' through my eyes and 'I saw' with my ears.
Yes . . . you've read this correctly and I've written as intended.
Today I was sitting outside in the quiet while centering my Spirit during a time that I was 'convinced' a full moon was upon us. Well . . . no full moon, but . . .
I saw, from the corner of my eye, quick movement that suddenly ceased. When I looked up I noticed the newly planted purple bushes (I don't know the name) and realized how very much they had grown and filled out.
There, in the center of a still bush, I heard this 'humming' sound and found myself becoming tense. I was reacting to the sound of, what I supposed were the wasps who are building new nests on a daily basis, and my fear of a sting (I am very allergic). The reaction came and left abruptly when I saw a sheen of beautiful greens, blues & purples in the midst of the plant. There 'it' was! Yes!
The teeniest, tiniest and incredibly brilliant "humming" bird!
Ahhhhh . . . but of course! 54 years and another AH HA moment. It doesn't get much better than this or does it!
Listening is an incredible thing - both from the eyes and the ears!
Hmmmmmmmmmm !
