Gaze and Glance
“There’s always a sunrise and always a sunset and it’s up to you to choose to be there for it,’ said my mother. ‘Put yourself in the way of beauty.”― Cheryl Strayed, Wild
“To pay attention, this is our endless and proper work.” – Mary Oliver
To consider, ponder, pause
Chart the day
To what will I gaze, what will I glance
Embrace or release
Absorb or roll off like water off a duck’s back
Stop or bypass
Pick up or put down
Listen or ignore
On trail or cut new paths
Awareness throughout to stop and reframe
Check and rename
To breathe deep and reclaim
Weeds or sky
This day to paint anew
Create and savor
Allow and invite
To gaze at what matters
To glance at the rest
“How wild it was, to let it be.”― Cheryl Strayed, Wild

it absolutely is
To gaze at what matter – glance at the rest.
