What a though question of such lovely notion — to imbue the ordinary with an air of romantic gesture, yes? I do believe even in our not-so-busy days, we need not plan elaborate gestures. The day’s stresses would gently melt away over a cup of richly fragrant coffee you get when sunshine is at its galore or when daybreak greets you with their color, mug cradled affectionately in our palms. In our way to go to work (or any obligatory places you may go, really) take a moment to gaze out the window. Notice the vast, ever-changing sky with its drifting clouds making shapes. Look at the trees gently blowing in the breeze and the sun filtering through the leaves. You may see a park filled with families, children laughing and playing on the grass like the solid evidence of a bustling life. Even a simple bus stop can offer a glimpse into the lives of others — hardworking people returning home to cleanse their mind off duties. Thus, in our process of quieting the mind to soak in these ordinary yet lovely sights, we may reconnect with the beauty and wonder that surrounds us daily.
