Can you discern the sense of wonder and rapture little Iyona (pronounced eye-yon-ah) is experiencing in this photo?
W. B. Yeats says, “The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.”
Though I’m planning to catch up on work this weekend, my goal is to deliberately be on the lookout for magic things: the teasing expression on a friend’s face, the inquisitive tilt of the head of my neighbor’s cute little dog or the chatter of the birds taking advantage of my Mother’s feeder.
I don’t want my senses dulled by busyness or distractions.
I want to see.
I don’t want to miss the magic things.
How about you?

One magical thing is the changing seasons and the way the changes are expressed by plants and animals. Yes, we do have seasons in California. 🙂
