birds nest
In my wallowing I almost mistook a bird’s nest for a trash heap. This brain function, this automatic assuming that is meant to ease our mental load, is distorting our universe. It is making us see misery where small beauty lies. Just how many budding flowers have been dismissed as plastic wrappers. It’s not true! These crinkled petals may look like an act of negligence but no, they are not litter, they are life. Take another look, it’s not all trash, there are good things in this gray world.
