Notice The Edges

That daughter of mine…

Back in the day…laying on the couch…cuddled under a blanket…nibbling on chips…cuz that’s how she eats them…tiny little bites…kind of like a bunny…suddenly declares her love…for the edge…I love it…when I find an edge in the Tostitos…she says…holding it up…admiring it proudly…showing her treasure…to the fam…

Have to admit…mama me…had no idea what she was talking about…you know…she explains…the misfits…from the chip cookie cutter…that don’t get filtered out properly…I lovvvve them…chip eating me…had never celebrated…acknowledged…nor really cared about…the mishapen crunchy tidbits…something so important to that daughter of mine…mama me…had never…even…noticed…

And so it is in life…we get engrossed…in our own little circle of life…that sometimes those edges…get overlooked…missed…ignored…that child…scared about school starting…the spouse…stressed about work…the friend…needing a sympathetic ear…the pet…just wanting us…to put our phone down…

So tune in…look around…take time…to notice…cuz once you start looking…you’ll be surprised…how easy it is…to see those edges…hiding there…in plain sight…
​
And that daughter of mine…agrees…
