Instructions for living a life: Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it.

— Mary Oliver

aweattentionnaturepoetry

Why this matters:

For Oliver, awe is not a rare event but a daily discipline. The ‘sublime’ is found in the meticulous observation of the small—a leaf, a bird, a breath. Attention is the currency of love, and astonishment is its natural interest.
