The sky puts on a different show every evening, free of charge, and most people never look up.

REFLECTION

WHAT THIS MEANS

Some of the best things available to you have no price and send no notification, which is exactly why they get skipped. Nothing pings to tell you the light is doing something unusual tonight. Attention goes where it is competed for, and the sky has never competed for anything.

Step outside for five minutes near sunset this week, with no reason and no phone in your hand. Not every evening will be worth it, which is fine. You are building the habit of looking up, and that one is portable and available for the rest of your life.

A QUESTION TO SIT WITH

When did you last watch a whole sunset without a screen?
