Sometimes life becomes so routine you forget to notice what is interesting about it in the first place. I’ll be the first to admit that I like routine. I like doing the same boring running route, I like to eat the same types of foods, I always wear the same type of running shoes and I always pick the same flavor ice cream at the Dairy Serve. Boring, that’s me and I’m ok with that. The danger in having a dull routine is that it can become just that. So how do you turn life into a sleeper hit? Just reverse the game plan. I have been hiking this same route for what seems like forever. It never seems boring to me because I have a good friend to chat with as I skip from stone to stone. The other day, in monumental fashion we went wild and crazy and reversed the direction from counter-clockwise to clockwise. Just like the gps in the car, when we changed direction, our brains chanted out the message, "recalculating". Because of our slight change, we came across this really cool graffiti. It may have been there for years or just a week for all we knew, but until now it had never caught our attention. Moral of the story is that it doesn’t hurt to change it up every now and then. You never know what treasure may be hiding right before your very eyes or how you could see things in a whole new way.
