The little things!  Those itty bitty moments that we tend to ignore until something stops your ever present need to keep growing forward. The little things.  Today is 5-28.  I put my first words on paper this morning at 5:28.  The little kid in my thought that was cool as s***! Twenty seven years of daily writing and something so tiny stopped my creative spirit and energy and said whisper, “Well look at that.”  Being in the “right” place at the “write time.  Ha!  You know what we all need?  A little more time to recognize the rays of light that lend an avenue of peace over unrest. We’re an overcrowded generation.  We want it all.  Compared to other levels of travel, it might actually look like we do have it all.  If not, I’m headed to Amazon.com.  The only thing unavailable to every one of us is time.  Truth is, we wouldn’t know what to do with more time.  Too much of the time we have today is wasted.  A year ago at this time we had all the time in the world.  Lockdown 2020.  I yearn for those days.  I loved every second of every moment my wife and I created with our disaster artist dog Jazzie.  We respected that moment in time.  We planned things out better and wiser.  We allowed that open field of time to have its rightful space in what time would eventually erase.  The little things.  How did we ever forget to take the time to recognize them?  Sure, I guess we can try and go back to show some homage.  But in reality that’s nothing more than rewriting your history.  Being mindful of your little things right now creates childlike giggles you’re never going to get back.  Wow that seems a little dark.  Not if you live for the next little thing. It’s right there in front of you.  Play with it.
