i see people sometimes, moving through their day, and it makes me think about what we truly notice. every once in a while, i wonder if we are missing things that are right in front of us. we build our worlds, our routines, and everything feels so solid, so known. but how does it make sense that our known world is the only world in the universe. the universe holds so many layers, so many realities just beyond our usual sight. maybe what we consider strange isn't strange at all, just a different way of being. maybe there are intelligences, integrated and living amongst us, observing our daily lives from a perspective we can't quite grasp. it makes me think about what we choose to see.
