say no more, use your eyes

Some days I just feel more aware.
It's like all of the sudden I remember that I have all of these senses and start to use them intentionally rather than passively.
It's the difference between merely hearing a symphony orchestra and listening to it. It's the difference between merely drinking a cup of coffee and tasting it.
It's an active engagement with my information processing. I pick up on so much more. I make more connections. I feel so much more alive.
I experience.

  1. Confession: I've read your blog and feel pretty creepy about it-- I don't see other comments and I'm not sure if this is supposed to be a secret or something, but I appreciate this post. Using my senses intentionally means a lot to me, it makes me feel really really good about being alive in a way I have a difficult time describing to people and feel silly when I try.

    and this makes me feel a little better about regularly creeping on your youtube channel.
