"Chicken of the Trees"

In some South American countries they serve chicken of the trees. Another name for that "chicken" is Iguana. I am thinking of Iguanas because everyday in Mexico we saw numerous Iguanas everywhere we went in our resort. We saw large ones, little ones, dark ones and lighter skinned ones. They are amazingly tame and not aggressive.

At first when I would come across one on my path I would jump and yell.. Iguana! By the third day it's like, "oh look another Iguana." They are herbivores eating plants and leaves and in one article I read they have a "third eye" on their head. Now that's interesting.. we humans do too.

So I'm thinking that the things that scare us at first are only about the fear in our own mind. Because I rarely see large lizards they appear frightening at first. But as I got to watch them, take pictures of them, witness their behaviour I saw there was nothing to fear as long as I had a healthy respect for them.

Our third eye helps us to see from a spiritual point of view. Some fears are healthy, they protect us. Most fears are of our own making and upon a closer look we see there is nothing to fear at all.
