We hear “life’s short slow down”. It’s so the opposite of “life’s short, hurry up” and “sleep in the afterlife”. I think life’s secrets lay in the small details and the only way to see them is to slow down. So often people say, I never noticed, I never saw or I never thought. It seems so very sad we miss so much, so very busy doing what? In 10 years I doubt we will remember what we bought today but my guess is we will remember what what we noticed for the first time. It’s all in the details in so many ways.
What the Crows Know
Ancient ones among us
waiting to be asked
afraid we won’t listen.
The need to share so great.
Pull weeds, sweep the path.
