Most of us go through each day looking for what we saw yesterday. And not surprisingly. that is what we find.
Most of us expect the same, or worse and we are not frequently disappointed. But what would happened if we started to expect surprise? What if we removed the blinders that allow us to see only more of the negative things we have come to expect in life?
What if we started to look for the ordinary magic? would we be disappointed?
What would happened to us if we really fell in love with life? HOw would our lives change if we really thought, as Thoreau encourages, that reality fabulous? What if we took his advice and " Steadily observed reality only"?
Would our lives really be like a fairy tale, as he suggests? What if we started to look for the grand things that life would bring us each day? Would we be fools of whom other peoples take advantage, or would we find that life is exciting, joyful and wonderful?

If we could see like this, I think I wouldn't have any more sad days.
