You can see sunset colors and hear a bassline drop. Pause and let that be amazing for a second.
GRATITUDE
GRATITUDE
Perception is so constant that it stops being remarkable. Color arriving through your eyes, a low note arriving through your ears, both processed instantly and without any effort from you, and none of it noticed unless something goes wrong. The equipment is extraordinary and completely taken for granted, which is the usual fate of things that always work.
Stop once today, in the middle of something ordinary, and let one of them land. The sky as it changes, or a song through a good pair of headphones. Ten seconds of paying attention is the whole exercise.
What did you see or hear today worth stopping for?
Free, with nothing to buy inside it.
