As a human race, we are often terribly oblivious to our surroundings.
We are often so task-focused that we don’t notice what is around us, or take time to contemplate or observe it.
Tasks tend to blind us to everything but the task. And this is a built-in, necessary part of tasks.
But that’s why it’s so important to have set aside time to abandon all tasks. Task-less time, like Sabbath, is so we can stop doing and start observing; time to become more aware of our environments, our blessings; time to wait, listen, watch, rest.
Resolve to never let tasks dominate 100% of your time. Be intentional about setting aside task-less time each week.
