Day 094h: A re-ignition of the Soul … (July 17, 2019)
“The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders of the realities of the Universe that surrounds us, the less taste we shall have for its destruction … As such, a primary benefit of traveling is a tempering of one’s imagination with reality; a refilling of one’s attention with wonderment, and thereby a re-ignition of one’s sense of humility and gratitude and caring. Instead of gazing about and thinking how things might well be, we look more gently and glorify them as they already are. Instead of thinking about how one’s surroundings might prove of benefit to oneself, we look more gently and seek instead to be gentle with what is seen.” ~ via Rachel Carson & Samuel Johnson
