the other night, i said to my friend โwow, isnโt it fantastic that we were born on a planet where flowers grow on trees like that?โ while fully sober, and she laughed and said it sounded like something someone on dr ugs would say. i like to think about the world that way, like i am looking around for the first time ever. sometimes we forget how lucky we are, especially in the digital age where 100 alternatives to the real world breeze by us in just a few minutes. isnโt it fantastic that outside my window, there are trees that are alive and breathing? birds that were born, and sing, and love, just like we do? how lucky are we? when i look around at the world with that point of view, i never run out of things to be astounded by.
if you look for whimsy everywhere, it will be found there too.
