""In life. there are no ordinary moments."
Kathleen Magee
Life is rich with experience or opportunities just waiting for a person to pay attention. Each moment is like a verb waiting to be activated. Enhanced thoughts float through the air hoping to be snatched and expanded.
A simple dream streams an unfolding story perfect for an author's script. While driving, a glimpse out of the window captures a second of inspiration to carry a loitering idea into reality. While standing in a long line, bits and pieces of a conversation are over heard and somehow supplies information we didn't know we had been waiting for.
If our minds are over loaded there is not a lot of room for new thought. If our minds are stagnant, stimulating ideas may be too overwhelming to pursue. It is possible, however, to adjust our perspective to anticipate and embrace the gift hidden in ordinary moments. There can be a nurturing pause, a glimpse of a bird chasing a butterfly, or a returning memory of a tender moment. If we find our selves to be sullen, perhaps it is time to explore moments before they pass by!
