Many of us roam through life looking at everything but not seeing the world around us. I had a good example of this recently. I was at my desk and needed a break after focusing on my work. As I sat outside in my garden, I thought I was enjoying the birdsong and plants, but then my perception widened, and I saw clouds, trees, sunshine, and the paddock filled with dry summer grasses. Sunlight bounced off everything, creating beautiful patterns of light and shadow. I was
mesmerized by the beauty, and realized I had been looking but not really seeing.
