1st Superpower : Seeing Beauty


I try to capture the beauty around me. It's a futile en devour, but worthy of the effort. Since I no longer live in a cloud and the fog has lifted I see the beauty all around me. Sharing it. Sometimes doubting what I see and know the futility of capturing such beauty to share is a humbling experience. Who am I to judge something beautiful? This thought opens my mind to all that I see. Everything is beautiful when its' beauty is appreciated. My eyes are open as never before. I awake from sleep and not from the dead and behold I see beauty everywhere. I now appreciate what I see and am grateful for it.












Everywhere I look I see beauty. I see so much clearer now. I wake from sleep, not from the dead. My super-powers are growing, but what is clear is the connection with my dogs has deepened. I see it with Tucker (Grand Perinese Wolf) and Emma (Giant Golden Doodle) and Tyler aka T-bone (95 lbs of bad attitude Golden Retriever) they speak to me. We talk. Its weird I know, but real. They trust me, guess that's why it works.

  It's been a while since I've felt like posting as CPAPman. A lot of the gifts I've received since starting to breathe while I sleep have begun to feel quite common place and normal. What a shell of a human being I must have been prior to becoming The C-man if seeing beauty and clear thinking felt like some kind of supernatural power.

The nightly ritual of filling with water, relaxing with a book or blogging until I'm tired then strapping on the mask. Waking when the pressure cranks up and pops the mask loose and the loud high pressure stream of air leaks into my eye with a pitshishshshshshshsh. The struggle is worth it, but it is still a struggle. The nightmares that used to wake me all through the night when the apnea would get really bad are gone. More accurate is that I don&

Time for some help

Flight of Beauty

So one of my original CPAPman super powers was seeing beauty. As I was flying over the Rockies I look to my left and see this: Then realize what I’m looking at so I capture this: Snowmass, Colorado where it all began. Where I became a man. Or more correctly, where I left my childish things behind.  So I land home in Grand Junction and see some beauty that I had seen the year before not long after becoming the C-Man: Makes me wonder. Are the flowers becoming more and more beautiful or is my ability to appreciate their beauty continuing to grow? I think it the later. Seeing the beauty in an Iris is one thing, I am hoping grow the ability to see the beauty in everything. Now that will be a superpower that just might save the world!
