"Instructions for living a life:
i. how there are people in the world that live their entire lives while I sleep (and vice versa)
ii. raindrops never fail to fascinate me
iii. the way a song/sight/smell can trigger deja vu
iv. people who don't like to read (it's like going on an adventure without having to get out of your pajamas! how much better can it get?!)
v. how we can be so privileged that waking up in the morning is taken for granted
vi. the way bobby pins can disappear at lightning speed
vii. how complex, unusual, and special God made the world and the things in and around it
Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it."

Part of my quest to pay attention, be astonished, and tell about it. I'd love to hear what astonishes you.

Oh that's a good quote!
ReplyDeleteAren't raindrops cool??! I've seen them a hundred times and I still think they're just the coolest thing. =D
People who don't want to read; oh those poor people, I feel for them too. =)
We do take the morning for granted too much. Good point.
Bobby pins! Yes! =O It is my personal belief, that Aliens from Jupiter are collecting them to build a version of the Eiffel Tower there! ;) Obviously they need a lot!
Me? I'm astonished how different things look when the sunlight is behind them; they just glow!!! Leaves, a forest, people, they all look different in different lights. =D
