What is an adventure in seeing?
Anything that is unexpected, surprising, or that you view from a new perspective, as if seen for the first time. Something that delights you. Go for a walk and be open to the unexpected. Or, spend the day noticing light in your home or wherever you are. Find the beauty in something considered ordinary or mundane. As Annie Dillard says,
“The world is fairly studded and strewn with pennies cast broadside by a generous hand. But- and this is the point- who gets excited by a mere penny? But if you cultivate a healthy poverty and simplicity, so that finding a penny will literally make your day, then, since the world is in fact planted in pennies, you have with your poverty bought a lifetime of days.”
Find the pennies.
