What happened to us?

Brianna

A few years ago, the “girls”, as I call them..My Wife, daughter and Grand daughter and I, went out to lunch together at Uno's…as we sat there talking and such, I notice a small boy , around 3 years old walking up to my grand daughter, a year and ½ old at the time, who was seated directly across the table. As this small boy approached my little girl, time seemed to suddenly stop…One of those “suddenly” moments…It was something God wanted me to definitely “see”. The small boy was standing no more then a foot away from her, probably closer to 4 or 6 inches..close enough to kiss and they where both looking directly at each other..face to face, eye to eye. Well within that “zone” we humans have…you know, that “zone” of about 3 to 4 feet that we as humans don’t allow anyone to enter into, unless its safe..ya, that “zone”.

Anyway, time suddenly stops, as these two total strangers eye’s met you could “see” that there was some type of communication between them, one of Love, so much so you could “see” a “glow” around them, but there was no emotions, nor any words spoken…just this beautiful union between 2 humans..so innocent, so pure..so lovely. Then, after a few moments, the little boy stepped back, walked over to his mom that was watching and proceeded to walk out of the restaurant…as she walked by she smiled as if she “saw” the same thing just happen.

After “witnessing” all this, I was reminded how most grownups “act” toward one another as they get older. With tears in my eyes and my heart ready to explode, I looked at my daughter and said…WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO US, AS HUMANS?…
thats just a rip-off of the old drunk and the blonde baby story...

GET SOME NEW MATERIAL

BITCHES!


nope, sorry...but I know nothing about a drunk and blond baby story..lol

Peace


its the same exact story..

posted all over the net years ago..and on GLP before xmas.


peace.

still a good story

i refer to the 'zone' as the "personal bubble"


one way of looking at it... :)


Peace


... but but and but... lol, if indeed said 'zone-ings' were of any sorta up close and personal kind of a 'bubble at all... wouldn't it be instead then, 'my zone' and/or 'my personal bubble'???... and cuz after all how can ya ever personalize yourself upon something that's being kept impersonal... and I mean, really... doesn't that just sorta conveniently keep ya seemingly safely distanced and/or separated for your own 'stuff'?



I hear you friend but what in the case when someone violates your free will. Shields up!... lol…but is it not true?

Go try walking into somewhere where you “feel” very uncomfortable for good reason…yep those shields will come up..or Scotty be looking for a new job.

Now, on the other side of this I do understand what you are saying friend, for surly one having their “shields-up” all the time in life would be a tragedy to say the least, but as one poster stated already, that requires trust or a least the sense of a safe surrounding “environment”

Peace


... well, golly, if'n someone tries to violate me free will... I ask them, "What's wrong with you?"

And, and, and... I always go where it's uncomfortable (and can't ya tell by just what all I've put out here, lol)... but then too... I'm also a cracker who was born and reared in the Watt's area of Los Angeles (or, lol, a very street smart wise ass to the max!)... and... my first very real cultural like shock was when at 15 we moved into an all cracker or white type of environment... now that really blew me away, lol.

or, lol, if I am ever uncomfortable I just start talking about it, and to/with any and every one and all around, and cuz that would be a really curious kinda situation for me, and so I would just naturally want to know more about it, and/or lol, like what the heck's going on.

And, lol, if I am ever uncomfortable, and most always I am... with something new I am doing/being... then I just ask any/every one and all... "Hang in there please, I'll get it... I'm just a newbie is all."

And then too... and if maybe ya think about it... in a very real sense, wouldn't the very bestest shield of all be no shield at all... well... and that is unless we're talkin' clothes and it's like really cold outside, lol.

lol, ya, you got the right idea...that is, to be able to walk around with no shield at all.

Reminds me of the "redneck" custom.
We nod or wave when passing in a truck, say "hello" to strangers, ask about one's kin (and mean it), offer to help people in need- it's a human communication, often non-verbal.
There is a kinship among these people. From babies to grown adults. Maybe it's spiritual, who knows. But it's real.

... well, lol, just as with all of that loverly 'flow' and not 'contol' kinda respectings... it's also totally effortless, and them dang shield sorta thingies just always seem to weigh themselves so heavy upon folks anyways... in other words, and within them regardings, I am just a total and complete weakling... or, lol, I'd rather be playing.

can't help but feel invisible here

children do that with adults also
it's nice to be trusted by a child
and very humbling to be "seen" in that way

except they don't wave or say hey to strangers up north.

now why is that?

What a beautiful story Cherished One...thank you...

Cherished One. What has happened to us? Society has given us myriad reasons and excuses for all our behaviours. So much so that it no longer matters if we behave as a human should, their is always an excuse not to be held accountable. It is a sad situation indeed.

I shake my little corner the best I can! LOL

That is a awesome story Cherished One! A cherished moment for sure. It's nice to see you :)

Hello Gooder! It's damn gooder to see you man! Great input too.


Howdy Bro! good to see you as well. I had to laugh the other night when you posted that "pinky and the brain" thread...just thought it was great but didn't have time respond...


Peace

oh I agree, but I was looking for the "cause" not necessarily the reasons or outcome. I didn't want anyone packing their bags and going on some type of guilt trip, but only focusing on things they have no control over, such as the air they breath, the water they drink, the food they eat, ect...


Peace
