The Elephant Trail

There's not very many things you can do when you're walking outside. It gives you plenty of time to think, plan, observe- it's the perfect excuse to "daydream" without guilt.

Maybe you see things that you haven't seen before. Maybe you notice things that you have seen before. Today, I noticed my little elephant trail.

This little patch of ground looked just like an elephant hide to me! 🐘🤔 There was asphalt everywhere but only this one little patch of ground looked like an elephant hide.

It was only about 5 ft in circumference and had I been looking elsewhere, I would have missed it.

My little elephant hide patch of ground was not very life-changing. If I missed it it would not have been the end of the world. But I wonder how many things we do miss that could be life-changing opportunities simply because we're distracted.

That's ok- just because you missed it on Monday doesn't mean you'll miss it on Tuesday.

And just maybe ...Tuesday's appreciation will be stronger than Monday's.

I suppose what really matters is when you ARE exposed to things, take the time to pause and appreciate. Look at them from different angles, hold them up to the light, considerate them in all their beauty, and admire all the facets.

...even if it's just an elephant trail.

But today I just kept it with me to track..

wOot!

This is very cool! 😁 I see little things like this all the time and almost ignore the big picture... LOL!

hehehehe gotta trade on and off - right?

forest, trees, forest, trees :)

It is fun when things like that pop up before our eyes though! love taking the time to notice them! :)

Congratulations on such a nice and big number! It is so nice that you have a chance and a willingness to notice new things. There is so much to see and appreciate when we open our eye a bit wider 💚

Hehehheeh well... Soon I'm sure! You are a fairy warrior 💚. And yes... I think that's the key... Willingness to see 🤗

Also not sure if today will be a bit number for me ... My next goal is 25k. That used to be where I was at 2 years ago... But now? Easing into it hehhee
