for when you’re feeling a little bored by the world tilt your head back & take the sky in crane your spine & feel air rush through look around & where are you? you say this is just your room you say there’s nothing new here but have you really seen? can you recall the shape of your door’s neck? have you asked leaf about his family? do you know where your name came from?
paying attention is a choice. remembering is love. saying I am here.
so if you’re feeling bored open your eyes a little wider nudge your gates a few degrees open there’s always pieces of the universe looking for shelter. and why not open your heart to more of being?
for when you’re feeling a little bored by the world tilt your head back and take the sky in crane your spine and feel the air rush through you look around. where are you? you say this is just your room you say there’s nothing new here everything is the same as its always been but do you really know have you really seen can you recall the shape of your door’s neck? do you remember when your couch’s birthday? do you know where your name came from? have you asked leaf about his family? what is the history of the corner store?
paying attention is a choice. remembering is love. saying I was here is the ultimate form of care.
we were never bored once we never questioned ourselves for wanting everything we did was crucial to survival to mutual flourishing.
if you’re feeling bored, try opening your eyes a little wider try breathing in a little deeper nudge your inner door open a few degrees so you can give shelter to a bit more of the universe.
