Appreciate the micro to understand the macro.
Before I started my minimalist and zero waste journey I felt like I was sleepwalking. I was on autopilot, striving for success through material goods and status. I never really opened my eyes to what was in front of me. Nowadays, I’ve learned to slow down and smell the roses. I’ve learned to appreciate the small things in life. The every day things such as the rain on the windowsill, the colour of the trees, a cup of good tea. In appreciating the micro, I’ve finally understood the macro. I’ve finally understood what it means to live an authentic life.
Today is the day to appreciate the small things in life.
