Prompt 14: Appreciate {via Reverb 10}
"What’s the one thing you have come to appreciate most in the past year? How do you express gratitude for it?" (Author: Victoria Klein)
The first thing that comes to mind is how much I enjoy a good saunter. And not just sometimes, most of the time. I hate being rushed and moving from one thing to another. You could call me a "slow transitioner", or if you're feeling more judgemental, "lazy" or "unmotivated". But I can honestly say when everyone around me is hustling to and fro I have learned to appreciate my strong need for simplicity and downtime. I appreciate a virtually empty calendar and the ability to say "yes" at the last minute if the mood strikes. And I think I can best express gratitude for my love of sauntering by being frivolous and flamboyant with my time, by choosing to saunter when the world around me demands I move faster.
"It is a great art to saunter." -Henry David Thoreau
