Every afternoon my puppy and I stroll around the streets or the park to stretch our minds and legs. Sometimes we take a different route and some days it can be the same. My puppy is the greatest teacher for those who see things repeadtely and delete their surroundings, numb to it.

 

Every walk, is a new day. It’s as though the land is yet to be explored. As though we’ve never passed these trees or shrubs previously and yet, to him, they have a new smell. With his head dug into the shrub to smell its  roots, he treats it as a new adventure. The park is a new picture, unseen. The smells in the air arouse his nose and to tinker off to go and have a sniff. Zigzagging across the park to follow his senses.

 

It’s incredible. We walk into our surroundings and remove what we already know from our minds and only absorb a little more. The puppy teaches that even though the same experience yesterday is to be had today, will not be the same. Treat it as though it is brand new for you and allow the possibilities to reveal themselves to you.
