Today, I will have flexible eyes. I will plant myself strongly within the decision to look softly. I will move through the day as if it had never occurred before. I will set no judgment in place ahead of time. Over and over, I will return to the fact that I have not had this particular day before. I have never had this phone conversation, been in this crowd, looked at this sky, had this sensation. I will observe how everyone and every circumstance is a little different now than they have ever been. Each difference I see today will be a prize I collect — and by the end of the day, I will be wealthy in newness
