Tell me, on the street after the second corner you turn on the way to the store, how many trees are there along the sidewalk? What kind of trees are they?

There's an interesting book called "On Looking" where the author walked around a city block with 11 experts in different fields and saw the world through their eyes. Here's an article about it: https://www.themarginalian.org/2013/08/12/on-looking-eleven-walks-with-expert-eyes/

The world is endlessly interesting, even in the mundane. Even if it's just keeping an eye out for new street art or thinking about a project or figuring out what I will do this weekend or just listening to my body and feeling the new aches or am old pain going away. There's often not a need for music for me.

Uncomfortable news is not like wine. It doesn't get better with age. Tell them sooner rather than later. If nothing else, it'll give you more time to work on whatever needs to be worked on afterwards.
