Too much or too little

Daily writing prompt
What details of your life could you pay more attention to?

It’s not more, it’s less attention I need to pay. I was thinking about this exact idea a couple of weeks ago. People who are unbothered. Who don’t get all caught up in their heads.

How do they do it?

What I decided was to perhaps start paying less attention to things. I don’t need to know why someone said what they said, did what they did. Stop examining every little thing.

Who cares, let it go.

*I say all of this on a day when I’m actually paying very close attention to the fact that it’s the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. I’m reading some of the horror stories. Children kidnapped from their homes, stripped of their culture and forced to live in institutions disguised as schools. The “lucky” ones survived the abuse but many never made it home.

A fellow WP blogger AND Canadian, dedicated his post today to this. Please give it a read. The amazingly talented Sven Anger.

  4. So important to know your country’s real history. The US government is presently working to bury ours.

    1. Ughhh I am soooo grateful to have the leadership we have, both provincially and federally. I can’t imagine dealing with what you guys are, I think I’d be angry everyday.
