daily missteps: overlooking
something to appreciate:
An early-morning rainfall in the midst of a full-blown spring. The verdant life thriving just beyond my bedroom window, the quiet and perpetual hiss of cars as they speed by on the water-slick road, the smell of a natural refurbishing in progress as the robins trill to one another from tree to green-topped tree.
Of all the things to forget to appreciate, I chose this. I'm so unoriginal, but I'm also feeling poetic after last night. (Long story short: my writing class came to its inevitable end, and I, in addition to my classmates, read a short piece I'd been working on. Hearing everyone else's pieces made me yearn for more stability and flow in my own writing, in addition to jolting my muse out of its hibernation.)
Dear FList: What's something that, in the hubbub of everyday life, you forget to pause and appreciate?
random link:Here is a YouTube video of Brand New's "The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot", a song I've literally just listened to for the very first time. (It's the perfect soundtrack to accompany today's quiet, introverted mood.)
