It's only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on earth -- and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up -- that we will begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the only one we had.

Lifescape

Day 3.

"Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smelling faces. Smell the rain, and fell the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential and fight for your dreams." - Ashley Smith

Something so simple can be forgettable as your world blows by with daily frustration.

Your alarm clock didn't go off on time. Your misplaced your cell phone. You forgot to give your kid lunch money. A bill was bounced. Spilled your morning coffee on your clothes on a way to a meeting.

As your whirling by your car door to get to your ten o'clock doctors appointment, did you notice the butterfly that flew by?

Moments in time can go by as fast as the flutter of that butterfly. But in the world of go, how are we expected to notice?

Noticing that one moment that lasted a brief second can bring a sensation of happiness for the day, can be done. Just look up. Sit down. Watch. Listen

Turn a world that can be filled with small inconveniences which bring your day down. Into recognizing the small, precious lifescapes that could possibly make your day.

Until next time, Turas math dhut!
