See the World!

Bol

We grow accustomed to our surroundings, to our world, to our quotidian, so much so that we stop seeing it, and in doing so we rob ourselves of life itself. We are meant to see the world - every part of it, every second - and to drink it in, and savor it, and change what we can and accept what we can't, but to see it all.Author Warren Bluhm resolves to "See the World!""I'm not planning to reallocate my resources so I can go explore ruins or exotic islands and rain forests and teeming cities," he writes. "No, I'm talking about what I see when I lift my eyes from the screen to the hills, to the sky, and to the wonders right next to me, just beyond my reach, whether it's a rabbit frozen in my back yard hoping I don't see it or a weed growing between the cracks in an ancient sidewalk."This book contains 70 reflections about being aware of this world we're walking through, noticing the delightful little details we otherwise might miss as we scurry from here to there.See the World! is the latest in a series of books collecting posts from the warrenbluhm.com blog, also including A Declaration of Peace and Echoes of Freedom Past.
