Most people go a whole week without looking up. The sky has been running a free show the entire time.

Attention runs at eye level and below, where the tasks are. Above that line is something enormous and constantly changing that asks nothing of you and costs nothing to see, and the reason you miss it is habit more than busyness. Nothing up there competes for your notice, which is precisely why it never gets any.

Look up once a day this week, deliberately, for longer than a glance. Morning light, weather coming in, the hour before dark. It is a small correction and it tends to loosen something, especially on days that have been narrow.
