"I'd rather see you up"

In my previous post I spoke of myself as an “angel flying too close to the ground”.  This phrase is from a song by Willie Nelson about an angel that breaks her wings flying too close to the ground.   That is my literal interpretation but I like the image of it.   Many of us are like that, we can’t see the bigger picture because we are too close to it.  I would urge you to be like the eagle and get a higher perspective. 
There is a lot going on in the world and in our lives.   And when we only look at it from the perspective of the ego, the little i, we don’t always see the big picture.   We have a tendency to take things too personally.   We are all ONE whether we believe this or understand it.   Hover a little higher like the falcon, like the eagle, and look at the world and your own little world from a higher perspective.   See that higher perspective, feel it. 
I’ll leave you for today with these words also from the same song  (Thank you Willie):  “Fly on, fly on past the speed of sound
I'd rather see you up
Than see you down”
