What I Could Pay More Attention To

What details of your life could you pay more attention to?

I move so fast sometimes that I forget the small things that make up my days. The way I start my mornings. The words I whisper to myself when no one’s around. The sound of laughter in the background while I’m caught up in something else.

I could pay more attention to the quiet pauses, the food I put on my plate, the way the sky looks when I actually stop and notice it.

The details are easy to miss, but they’re what hold life together. Paying attention doesn’t mean doing more it just means being here, really here, for what’s already happening.
