It is what it is…or is it?

Of course ! It’s a paperweight. To hold down what we deem the important pieces of paper that need addressing, actioning, filing.

Simple .. yes, it is what it is .. a paperweight, a rather pretty one at that.

However, a beautiful enchanting glass globe is looking at me .. full of reflection .. it looks different in different lights. The spheres inside remain, they are stored & on show to the world … they are not perfect or symmetrical. They are encased in a perfect glass house, for all to see & admire. This piece of beauty can hold down any important or unimportant document, scrap, print off… the pile it could contain & protect until the time comes to address, action or file is larger than one would first think.

So, is this a paperweight ? Or a version of us ? . We are without question beautiful, the world & those in it view us differently, they see the inside stored spheres in various ways depending on their internal light source. Many admire us, polish us & put us in pride of place …. The unfinished, waiting to be sorted pile we sit on goes mainly unnoticed to the untrained eye.. & that is perfect .. as it can detract from our beauty.

Our strength keeps the pile in check & as much as that pile of unfinished stuff is important … it is what it is ! One day, it will be filed, framed, posted, signed, blown away, lost or soaked in coffee … whereas the paperweight will likely be sat in pride of place ….. looking radiant. ️ The important paperwork may in actual fact not be important.

So … it is what it is … OR is it ?

Most things are not as they appear … if we take the time to look deep enough into the beauty … & lift the weight. Whatever is contained in the pile you’re holding down .. don’t let it detract from your strength, beauty & well stored inside spheres. Today .. consider … Is this ACTUALLY what it is ????
