Life

 

"It is good to be seen and not viewed" as the old heads would say.

It seems something has shifted.

Are we not operating in a society where views are more relevant than being physically seen? 

When the old heads made that statement they were referring to life.

Acknowledging the goodness in being seen with the breath that God blew into our bodies upon arrival 

Rather than only being viewed after our spirit has left and what remains is a lifeless tent 

once a host ; now set to return to dust 

So I’m curious

With views being more relevant than acknowledgment in the present …

Are we dead?

Spiritless ? 

No longer able to sit in the goodness of life? 

Is it now better to be viewed

than it is to be seen?
