Ten years from now you’ll miss a random Tuesday you’re currently calling pointless.

GRATITUDE

WHAT THIS MEANS

Memory does not sort by importance. It keeps the walk to class, the specific noise the door made, the person who sat there every day, and it quietly throws out the events you thought mattered. Whatever you are currently filing as a nothing day is made of exactly the material that tends to survive.

You do not have to convert every Tuesday into an occasion. Just refuse to call it empty. Once today, look around at the room you are in and the people in it the way you would if you already knew it ended. Then go back to being bored, which is allowed.

A QUESTION TO SIT WITH

What was ordinary about yesterday that you might later miss?
