For your consideration…

We are meant to be forever students. Every single moment of every single day presents opportunities for us to discover something new.

Spring is such a good time for this reminder. Just last night at dinner my son-in-law, James, looked up and suddenly saw one of their bushes by their deck was blooming. “My gosh, look at how beautiful that is.” I use this example because he had been in and out on the deck at the grill several times during the evening and simply not noticed before. As we relaxed over dinner, he noticed. This is what happens in life. We get busy. We get focused on a task or where we are going and simply miss all that is on the way.

We also miss things because we have a mental model that tells us we have to deliberately set out to discover. This is not true. We simply have to have an open mind and heart free of judgment and ready to learn new things, lessons, beliefs, new places, meet new people, etc. We also have to look with fresh unassuming eyes and ears.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

NOTE: This blog was an assignment from Archangel Metatron. I take it very very seriously. I am mentioning this because I am headed off on brief vacation. I always take a travel laptop for the sole purpose of writing this blog daily. Still there have been time when it has been challenging. So bare with me and don’t give up on me. If I miss a day here andthere, it is all good and I will HOPEfully be back at it the next day.
