Savor the day

Endearing Sunday

This is my my day to wonder and delight in smaller things, not endure them. I set it aside in hope for fabulous finds of happenstance. Just a day to admire and make memento, deciding upon what simple things really hold true affection. Items not about ownership or possession, that need not be grand in scale or monetary value.

What has worth is often hidden. Here's a map, if your intent on such a day of discovery:

The voyage...
Peruse unusual areas, such as odd stores for nick-knacks. Maybe slip into your storage shed of forgotten. Visit a market, and consider adopting second-hand. Stay inside, or brave the weather but where you go may take a little digging.

It's good to know what it is your searching for...
Ask yourself: Does the item evoke a memory? Take you to a far get-away? Perhaps peek your curiosity or make you smile inside. If it's special to you, then you've found your gem.

Enjoy the looking!...
These are visual and tactile treats of a different kind, This is art for your heart, and such a thing that an entire day could partake a day of. This day is for free-falling. Forgo navigation, and meander a quiet shop aimlessly. Flip through the pages of a stack of books. Peek in the box at the back. Don't be afraid to brush the dust with your sleeve - being adventurous can sometimes get dirty.

Once you've settled on your treasure...
Land on the perfect spot to nestle with your findings. Drink in that space, fill your senses with your surroundings. Appreciate the moment and the minimum. Cherish whatever new odds and ends you've acquired. See that it's not just about the item, but the journey.

Do cave in to tiny luxuries....
Splurge on coffee and a decadent bite of your craving. Feed the soul.
