Daily life and every small thing is the gate to the universe ：）

There are some days adventure calls me in the form of a bright yellow rotary phone hanging on the kitchen wall. I rush to answer and I twirl my fingers through the curly plastic cord and say, "Yes!" I take the trip. I take the leap. I breathe deep and leave home, to go and do a brave new thing. But most days, adventure calls in the form of a secret whisper floating into my ear and asking, "What's next?" Adventure calls me to notice the wonder right here in all that I have deemed insignificant. When adventure calls as a whisper and not as a yellow rotary phone, I'm reminded that the start of a new adventure can also take place at home. I trace the shadows shifting as the slog across the room. Pushed by sunlight, day after day, they're constantly moving. Just like sunlight, I notice the shadows are on their own journey, too. I don't need a time lapse to watch them closely. I don't need a compass to see where they go. Today, sunlight is a friend of shadows, whispers of adventure, at home.
