I am blessed to be able to catch a ferry to work every day. During this half hour journey I usually read a book or chat with friends; paying little or no attention to what is going on outside the window.
This morning I decided to do something a little different. I decided to look up and out! I now realise what I have been missing all this time; I would not have seen the delightful scene of changing colours in the sky as the sun rose up from behind the low lying clouds on the horizon, the darkened silhouette of Rangitoto or the glistening reflection of the sun in the windows of the cities skyscrapers.
These are all simple things, however, I now feel that my day is better because I did not get caught up in the monotony of the daily commute and instead chose to look up and out. It did get me thinking though, what else are we missing in life because we do not take time to look up and out?
