People watching can be so entertaining. Why? I don’t know; I haven’t figured that out yet. There is something to be said about watching something in silence. I love to watch my dog sleep. I love to watch the wind blow through a tree, and see the leaves gracefully hang on to the branch. Watching the snow fall from inside a cozy kitchen window can add a something special moment to your day.
Observation is overlooked through a hustle and bustle day. Mindful observation can bring life lessons in unusual packages. The Lord can speak to us, guide us, lead us, and inspire us, when we dare take the time to be in tune.
I encourage you to take some time this weekend to be in tune. Observe your way through the weekend. Go somewhere and sit in silence. Go somewhere that you find interesting: A bookstore, coffee house, park, your backyard…the possibilities are endless. Go somewhere by yourself, and observe your surroundings in silence.
We encompass five senses:
v Taste
v Touch
v Hearing
v Vision
v Smell
Let your environment seduce all of your senses while you sit in silence. Allow that something special moment to be imprinted in your day.
