The Blessings In Our Day

Every day, we are given numerous blessings if we look carefully. Some are more obvious than others, such as my kids sleeping in past 6am and not knowing what to do with the morning.

It’s the subtle blessings that are easiest to miss because they happen in such brief moments, our mind is focused on something bigger before we can process it. Attuning ourselves to see them has an extraordinary impact on everything else.

One major side effect is getting us out of our tunnel vision. There’s been enough psychological experiments (the gorilla one being the most famous) of people missing great details while focused on minutiae. I personally favour this magic trick as an even better example.

Blessings are big and they happen often. We just need to pay attention.
