Seeing is Believing… or Is It?
“A skeptic can never gather enough evidence and a believer does not need any!”
Just because you can not see microorganisms does not mean they do no exist. We know this to be a fact. We can use instruments such as a microscope to see their existence. There is so much that extends beyond the limits of out 5 senses.
Even though we can not always see it, smell it, hear it, feel it or even know what we are speaking to, does not mean it does not exist.

Lucid, you gently invite us to explore the mind and senses differently. People often underestimate the nature and expanse of reality because they view things from a purely human perspective. If you are taught you have five senses, then you may believe this is all you have. If you are taught Science must prove things exist for them to exist, then you may overlook things that do not fit scientific criteria. To realize it is possible to transcend limits of human conditioning and judgment enables you to discover you have additional faculties you can develop.

Hi Liara!!! How are you? It has been awhile since I have been able to pay attention to my site
sniff. It has been crazy in my house trying to adjust with our newest addition and returning to work. I soooo miss visiting everyone’s site and absorbing everyone’s thoughts….
You are very right though. If we are taught we have 5 senses then there is where we will stay. We are in a sense taught to limit ourselves from early on. It is hard to break those teachings, especially when it comes from reliable sources like our parents, siblings, community etc. I am glad I was able to find my way around the boundaries.
Hope all is well with you!!!

Yes. And sometimes, we don’t realize exactly what we are sensing until we are removed from a situation and are thinking back on it.

Hi Gina!!! How are you?
I agree with you! Take “signs” for instance… Sometimes we are shown signs that might not be obvious to us at that moment, whether it be because we didn’t want to accept it at that time, or just wasn’t aware of the significance, or maybe it was that life’s limited views blinded us….
Hey, but it is never too late to take the pearl out of the oyster so to speak
Have a wonderful weekend; good hearing from ya!
