Uncommon
Things We Don't Often See...
Rare things and moments are few and far between. Uncommon, not very often seen. Snapping a photo at the exact moment, catching the gentle flutter of a butterfly wing. The world going momentarily quiet so you can hear a Blue Jay sing.
Diamonds are formed from coal. Coal is so dark, so dusty and so hard. The universe applies pressure, majorly intense pressure to perform a rare feat. The uncommon, rare diamond in it's purest form. Sent to a jeweler to alter it to fit the norm.
A hummingbird is small. It is oh so tiny with wings that flutter fast. How many flaps per second, you ask? Why 10 to 15 at least... so yea, pretty fast. They quietly and sweetly sip nectar... another rare scene. If you ever see it, you will know what I mean.
"Oh look!" A girl scout helping someone. Ho;ding the arm and hand of an elderly woman. She helps her to her car and grabs her bags from the store. This is uncommon nowadays, rare, not really seen much anymore.
"He stepped on my sneaks!" A club goer exclaims. Glares and curse words are then exchanged. What happened next is uncommon. The young men calm down. They each say sorry to the other give each other a pound. Rare indeed because we all know to well how situations like this go.
Things that are uncommon are not always rare. Some thing that is rare however is uncommon. Keep your eyes, ears, mind and third eye open and always be aware...
