It’s so easy to forget to pay attention to the sounds and sights around you. Because we live in such an overstimulating world with so many things competing for our attention, it is easy to learn to block out our senses. It happens without most of us realizing it, and it becomes a habit. So, this morning when I walked outside I remembered to tell myself to open up and look around for the wonder around me. In a split second I was surrounded by birdsong and I realized the silence of winter had passed. The robins are back, and they are singing! It is spring…….so take a deep breath and let the music in.
