Wren Lesson II


The Wrens are gone. As I ate my breakfast I noticed that there wasn't much activity at the birdhouse. I waited and waited, but the parents never arrived. Nor were they flying around the yard or sitting in the tree singing. When I was done eating, I walked down to the birdhouse and looked inside. The chicks were gone. This got me thinking about perspective. To me, the Wrens are gone. To them they are living their lives. They were here, now they are somewhere else. Today, I will be remembering that my perspective is only one of many. I will be noticing how my perspective can distract me from a richer experience of what is going on around me.
